Coming from the world of publishing as an image director, photographer and then tattoo artist, he gradually expanded his practices. From canvas to skin, from concrete to steel via wood, Carlo Amen plays with materials, shapes and colors to help us discover a universe of his own..

Passionate about primitive art and the history of disappeared civilizations, his works are in the continuity of naive expressions, keeping only the essence of his inspirations. He draws his inspiration from his daily life; the men and women he meets during his travels, the colour of Mexico, the sweetness of life in the Mediterranean islands.  

The sun and the moon, the duality of  " La Vie L'amor "

The striking and mastered simplicity of his lines is often associated with an explosion of bright colours in his paintings and raw materials such as steel or concrete for his sculptures.

His "Neo-cubist" approach, as he likes to call it, allows him to represent a part of his reality without being encumbered by reality.

His flat surfaces, lines and faces become the naive expression of his observation of contemporary society.
