His imagery feeds on various forms of pop culture and sub-culture, such as fantasy literature, anime and manga universe, gothic language, radical environmentalism, alien communities, urban mythologies, cinematic thrill. Borrowing production processes from other creative fields such as cinema, architecture and design, video games, fashion, etc. Garavaglia’s hybrid artworks often function by connecting with the observer’s psychology and mechanisms of perception: sculptures, installations and performances, become vehicles to fictional places of feeling and understanding.
