Studio Hair & Co by MarcoPennacchiaART in Melbourne

Born in Italy in 1995, I have always been fascinated by the world of art, surrounded by history and culture. In 2009 I started studying the world of painting and sculpture in the high school Liceo Artistico di Treviso, which allowed me to open my mind from many points of view . Subsequently, I graduated in 2014 in sculptural disciplines, and embarked on a self-taught study path focusing more on pictorial techniques. In 2019 I decided to leave Italy and travel to different part of the world to get to know and see new colours and new perspectives. From Morocco to Bali, Indonesia, I then arrived in Australia which showed me how art can truly be in integral part of an entire community. I discovered the world of street art and murals, and then decided to open my own business as a full-time artist. My art is inspired by classical and renaissance art, and it’s focused on a study related to the anatomy, sense of movement, elegance and meaning of colours. In recent years I have had the opportunity to work on many Public Works creating Murals around the State of Victoria. I have had the opportunity to work with Councils and private clients, also winning competitions by reaching first place at the Rochester Mural Festival or winning the competition organized by Yarra Trams for the creation of a design linked to the sense of community and LGBTQIA + inclusion, subsequently reproduced on a Tram which will roam the streets of Melbourne throughout 2023. I have worked on large projects, collaborating with several recognized artists in Australia. All projects have been reproduced with professionalism, quality, and control of the required budget. I am able to professionally reproduce large projects having knowledge of the right working procedures, the necessary materials and equipment whilst producing high quality designs.
