Zero Mentale / Street Artist

Mentale Zero is an artist born in Padua in 1972. After graduating from the P. Selvatico Institute of Art in Padova, he earned a degree in Architecture in Venice. His training focused on the technique of airbrushing and the exploration of new materials, leading to a constant emotional evolution in the art of painting. His passion for airbrushing has significantly contributed to the artistic identity of Mentale Zero, refining his material management and technique. His works stand out for their polished and translucent surface, achieved through the skillful use of various paints, giving them a strong visual impact, remarkable stylistic value, and precision of stroke.

Mentale Zero’s artistic creation begins with an observation that translates into compositions through the creation of a “mental impulse” called synapse. This process starts from a nerve ending and unfolds into a complex journey of thoughts that weave through shapes and colors. The concept of synapse, meaning “touch” and “connect,” enables communication and the structuring of a concept in his painting. The configurations that Mentale Zero composes represent the birth of a form.

The artist doesn’t limit himself to expressing only “mental impulses” but also “creative impulses,” giving voice to thoughts in a surreal manner. We are faced with a world created only by suggestions, and what reaches the viewer’s eyes are the foundations of mental creation imagined by the author.

In recent years, Mentale Zero has approached the world of Street Art, embracing contemporary urban life. He has created murals, graffiti, and messages that resonate with the pulsating heart of metropolitan life. The use of spray, paints, airbrush, and stencils allows his messages to leave an imprint on the city’s skin.

Currently, Mentale Zero lives and works in Padua, continuing his artistic journey and enriching the contemporary art scene of Jesolo’s Malibu Beach with his creativity.
