  • About

New works by artist Carmine Santaniello often begin through collage. He creates faces using collected images of eyes, lips, nostrils, eyebrows, cheekbones and other features. In the process a personality on paper emerges, as does a new way of seeing faces. In this interactive workshop Santaniello will lead participants through the process of creating faces through collage.

ABOUT:
Carmine Santaniello was born in New York. His formal education includes the High School of Art and Design and The School of Visual Arts, and he holds a BFA from Parsons School of Design. After years as a graphic designer and as owner and art director of a design studio, Carmine Santaniello has put that behind him and started to follow his real passion- fine art. In 2000 he started to explore printmaking, since then he has exhibited nationally and internationally, had several one man shows and made his debut as a curator in 2006.
