The artist adds his or her signature to the finished work and this instead is the start of the creative work by Simone Crispino (b. 1962, Italy) and Stella Scala (b. 1964, Italy). The fact that as from 1991 they chose a different identity with Vedovamazzei pseudonym ( picked at random from a host of names that appeared in a Napolitan cemetery) places them at the heart of Dadaism and post-conceptual process.
Every work whether it would be a painting, installation or a photograph make reference to the avant-guard European movements of early 1900's right up to the hedonism that characterized the last decades of the past century.Art for them does not emerge from formal exploration, but from a reaction to occurrences both ordinary and unusual, allowing for a heightened reflection on the absurdity of daily life.
Vedovamazzei opted long ago to avoid a recognizible style, what opened up opportunities for them to continually reinvent themselves and expand the field of their capricious and inventive output.
