About Me:

I am...
an Argentinian painter, sculptor, engraver and scenographer.

About my artwork
I´m completely devoted to xylography, sculpting and digital art. I´ve already made three exhibitions using the last of the three means of expression. They´re unique in the sense that I use the mouse as if it were a pencil- I even sign with it- but I don´t employ any predetermined shapes. Once the drawing is complete I treat it with different graphic editors to apply different textures and effects to them.

I´m currently working on videos based on my latest digital production and also on CD cover artwork.

One of my latest works- Una Nada y Color-was used as the artwork for Camille DeVore´s latest jazz CD (Dream in Color), which was released in NY City on June 8th, 2008.

NEWS:The Minds of Glass video art project has been officially selected to be presented worldwide at the International Independent Film and Video Festival in Los Angeles next July and in NY in autumn.

Review of the Board of Directors of the International Independent Film and Video Festival of Los Angeles

Shot on DV, film´s a collection of montages showing abstract paintings/animations cut to New Age-sounding music, lots of keyboard sounds etc. Looks pretty good and the music fits the imagery pretty well for a calm and soothing atmosphere. "Minds of Glass is the artistic outcome of an international virtual collaboration by Argentinian visual artist Marta Bressi and Belgian pianist Dirk Schreurs. The 40-minute video experience contains 11 uniquely handcrafted sequences. They function as windows into consciousness and reflect a cry for freedom of expression with respect for the unity of all living beings."
