Zamàr / Marco Zanin
The process
Zamàr, the artist name of Marco Zanin, develops his research from the working of mother-of-pearl.
The image printed on mother-of-pearl interweaves with metal leaf, fragments and hand-applied reliefs.

Madreperlismo dell’Uno — The Mother-of-Pearl Art Movement
Mother-of-pearl at the heart of an artistic research into the relationship between matter, light and perception.
Matter and the gaze
Light meets the mother-of-pearl, the reliefs and the layers. The point of view changes the reflections and the reading of the image.
The Membrane
The Membrane is the threshold where the image continues through fragments, reliefs and matter. Work and frame become a single entity.
The Flower of Life
The Flower of Life is the hallmark of Zamàr’s works. Its geometry connects images, fragments and layers.
