Born in Cangas de Narcea ( Asturias), 1981

Oscar Parasiego is a Spanish multi-disciplinary visual artist currently based in Madrid. He graduated with an Honours Degree from the MA Fine Art Photography at the School of Photography EFTI in Madrid (2008)

His practice explores the untruthfulness of photography and the inability of photography to capture the complexity of human self-reflection. Photography is not truth but a symbol of representation. Its interpretation is consistently based on subjective experiences that shatter any illusion of a fixed reality.

In a formal sense, the investigation focuses on the use of digital tools to disrupt the two-dimensional nature of photography, introducing a third element that seeks to disturb the picture plane. The images speak in a personal language, articulating different layers of meaning via a new code that invites viewers to unravel the construction strategies behind the work.

He is currently interested in pushing photography’s boundaries and exploring the untruthfulness of photography with virtual and invisible technologies. His aim is to re-think photography in an innovative way, no longer as a 2D or frozen time instant but something else.

He has delivered several art projects over the last 10 years working in different countries and collaborating with very diverse communities.
