ABOUT

MAX STROLLO IS A MULTIDISCIPLINARY ARTIST AND A GRADUATE OF THE FASHION INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY.

 

MAX’S CAREER FOCUSED ON MENSWEAR DESIGN UNTIL 2019, WHEN HE BEGAN EXPERIMENTING WITH PAINTING, DRAWING, AND SCULPTURE IN AN EFFORT TO FURTHER ENGAGE WITH THE IMAGES HE ENCOUNTERED IN HIS PROFESSIONAL RESEARCH.

​

THIS PRACTICE DREW HIS FOCUS AWAY FROM THE FASHION-SPHERE TOWARDS A MORE PRIMARY FORM OF IMAGE-MAKING. SINCE THEN, HE HAS USED NUMEROUS MEDIA TO EXPLORE THEMES OF TRANSFORMATION, LONELINESS, AND LOVE.

 

MAX’S SERIES ”SYMPLEGADES”, A SET OF 7 SCULPTURES RENDERED IN PLASTER, ALUMINUM, AND WOOD,  IS THE DISTILLATION OF 3 YEARS OF EXPLORING THESE THEMES.
