Amedeo Polazzo is an artist of German-Italian descent based in London. He grew up with a palpable sense of a domestic life made safe by those who still recalled the insecurities of war.
His surreal and whimsical paintings depict worlds made up of domestic moments and dreamlike memories, associating familiar elements in unobvious ways and offering a gateway to the subconscious. Polazzo’s subjects are both personal and universal, idyllic but anonymous, unknown or forgotten, and outside of time.
