01 / What if love moved the world?LOVE AS GRAVITY
My work explores the relationship between geometry, light and perception. Through repeated forms, optical illusions and carefully constructed compositions, I create pieces that shift as the viewer moves. Working with materials such as acrylic and laser-cut elements, I investigate how static surfaces can appear to vibrate, transform and come alive. My practice is rooted in a fascination with the structures found in nature and influenced by Kinetic Art, Optical Art and the visual language of artists such as Jesús Rafael Soto, Carlos Cruz-Diez and Victor Vasarely.
Carlos Marcano is a Venezuelan-born artist based in Barcelona. His work explores geometry, movement and optical perception through laser-cut acrylic, repeated forms and precise compositions.
Influenced by Jesús Rafael Soto, Carlos Cruz-Diez, Victor Vasarely, Kinetic Art and Optical Art, he creates pieces that shift as the viewer moves. Since 2012, he has been developing a visual language where light, rhythm and geometry make static surfaces feel alive.
As a Plotter, he brings his own work into the community and helps carry the idea forward.
His art does not sit still. It makes the eye move.
