Eugene Carchesio(Art Forum)

Abstract

Brisbane-based artist Eugene Carchesio works with collage, drawing, watercolour and sound. His watercolours often express the simplicity and purity of geometric patterning in fresh, clean colours. He sometimes incorporates words, letters or numbers into their surface, toying with the signifiers of language and meaning. His sculptural assemblages make use of discarded objects from everyday life, such as matchboxes, paper or cardboard.
