Mário Sousa

Specializing in pixel painting with only three primary colours: Red, Green or Blue - Cyan, Magenta or Yellow, Mário constantly pushes the boundaries of his passion for the fundamental physical properties of light, and strives to create more inspiring visual narrative compositions of his scientific subject matter. Whether working with the aesthetics or the physical or metaphysical reflection of his subject matter, Mário's work is known for its multi-layered artistic composition. His thirteen series: Receptors, Rainbow, Polarization, Exposure, Double Exposure, Multiple Exposure, Time Exposure, Dodge Burn, Polarizers, Revelation , Dynamics, Mementos and Films are uniquely charged with a rich and vibrant complementary colour palette, refined over a period of more than two years of digital exploration and experimentation. Deeply associated with his experimentation process, is his abstraction from using commercial photo editing software. Mário's work is abstracted from artificial intelligence, machine learning, or data mining, in which Mário creates and manipulates photographs from scratch, through the use of programming. With his stylistic digital paintings, Mário wants to inspire people and seeks to express an intimacy that nurtures the appetite for open interpretation of what he is representing. Mário currently lives and works in London, United Kingdom and is preparing his debut solo exhibition scheduled to premiere in 2020. Explore Work.
