Born 1985 in Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, France.
Lives and works in Paris, France.
Mario Picardo has studied Fine Art at the Beaux-Arts de Paris.
The urban environment is a daily source of inspiration for Mario Picardo. As he travels around town, equipped with his cell phone, he doesn't hesitate to film, photograph and collect traces of society, from simple food packaging to abandoned objects, all feeding into a library of signs and shapes at the heart of the numerous drawings that populate entire notebooks.
Mario Picardo, himself a student of semiotics, American painting and the popular culture of the '90s, uses this vast harvest as the basis for his paintings.
Not content to simply reproduce what he has seen and recorded in his notebooks, he gives all his energy, in the enclosed, private space of his studio, to expressing the outward signs of the city. You can see them displayed and blended on his large-format large-format canvases, collages and more.
In his works, flashy colors coexist with subtle black elements on re-covered surfaces, stretched on stretchers, paper or various supports. This is where the artist's willingness to elevate craftsmanship to the level of art.
Having grown up alongside his father, a house painter, Mario Picardo inherited an attraction for building materials, widely preferred to those of the fine arts, and a certain taste for rigor. The time he spent in his truck, a veritable mobile workshop, gave him a taste for optimizing and reclaiming materials and spaces. materials and spaces.
