Svccy

Italy

Svccy is a 2D and 3D digital artist whose passion for visual art began in 2016, when he first began creating images in Photoshop. His practice today takes its primary inspiration from the Vaporwave movement, which was born and developed online around 2011/2012, and is characterised by the use of nostalgic themes such as 80s and 90s computer operating systems and video game consoles, Roman busts, abandoned shopping malls, and elements of Japanese culture all seasoned with the use of purple and pink shades. Svccy's particular reinterpretation of this style tends towards the more obscure and introspective variant. His work reflects the human condition in today's society, often represented by faceless or covered statues, which symbolise the lack of identity of the individual, subjugated by technology and by an ultra-consumerist society.

Svccy has received numerous awards for his work, including the Work Culture Observatory Award at Connexion Festival in Rome, Winner of the Talent Varese solo exhibition, a Finalist of the XIV "Sergio Fedriani" Award, Finalist in the Varese Design Week Talent award, Finalist in the First Edition of the Artistic Competition organised by BVLGARI Accessories and COMONExT, and more. The artist is represented by Zanini Arte gallery, with whom he has exhibited at multiple art fairs. In 2023, Svccy was exhibited at W1 Curates in Oxford Street, London, in his show "DYSTOPIAN CONSTRUCTIONS", which explored the diversity of contemporary society's spectrum.

Lost in Yesterday

A stone figure lies on the floor, symbolizing the stillness and immobility of memory, a form locked in a protective posture. The head, dissolved into a soft cloud, represents the fleeting nature of thought, an idea that fades into the depths of memory, blurring the line between dream and reality. Around it, small details – wildflowers, origami, and paper planes – evoke the fragility and lightness of memories, contrasting with the weight and solidity of the stone figure.
This work represents the captivating power of the past, which can envelop us without our awareness, trapping us in a dreamlike state where time stops, yet life continues to flow around us. The contrast between the heaviness of the stone and the lightness of the smoke and origami speaks to the tension between the need to remember and the need to let go, between staying and moving forward.

More on digital art

Generative art
Generative art refers to a way of creating artworks using an autonomous system. In digital art, these are usually generated from code and algorithms created by the artist, often with certain predefined parameters or systems. Although these parameters guide the final outcome of the work, generative art is generally a surprising way to create artworks, as the results are often unexpected and the number of possible outcomes can be infinite.
AI
AI art is a branch of generative art that uses artificial intelligence. Unlike other generative artworks, AI artworks use specific complex algorithms and models derived from machine learning. The most common methods for creating AI art today are GANs (generative adversarial networks) or proprietary prompting platforms such as ChatGPT, Sora, Midjourney, or Dall-e.
3D
3D art uses 3D software such as Blender, Cinema4D, Houdini, or video game software such as Unity to create works of art. In 3D works, artists can either arrange assets (the 'objects' in a 3D artwork or world) that they have created themselves or purchased from other creators to create elaborate environments and scenes (an approach to 3D art called 'set dressing'), or specialize in sculpting, which involves creating their own objects and assets.
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry is a specialized 3D technique that allows 3D objects to be created from numerous photographs taken of an object or scene from multiple angles. These photos are then compiled to determine the specific positioning, shape, and dimensions of the object in space, and then converted into a 3D model. Initially developed for engineering and urban planning, photogrammetry has become a way for artists to produce extremely accurate 3D models from real-life images.
Collage
An extension of the traditional, plastic approach to collage, digital collage involves searching for and cutting out multiple images, extracting them from their original context, and recomposing them in a new arrangement to create a work of art. Artists can use their own photographs or find images on the internet.
Illustration
Digital illustrations are created using software such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Procreate. As with drawing on paper, the artist uses a stylus to sketch a figure or object, usually on a tablet, to construct a scene or artistic universe. Unlike traditional drawing methods, digital illustration is much more forgiving, as mistakes can be easily corrected and drawn elements and objects can be easily moved around within a scene.
Video
Video artworks primarily use a recording camera, but may sometimes include additional post-processing or editing to distort, modify or add additional elements to the image. Some artists use state-of-the-art recording equipment to create macro zoom-ins or time lapses, privileging fidelity to the subject matter. Others use additional softwares to significantly modify or warp the video, creating an alternative perspective on the world that surrounds us.
