Matias Zanotti

Matias Zanotti (Cba. Argentina - 1980) is a multidisciplinary artist who began her training as an interpreter more than 20 years ago and who since her beginnings has developed a strong inclination for aesthetics, staging and especially the creation of stage costumes, where she discovers the fascinating world of form and color and experiments, in a self-taught way, with non-conventional materials creating costumes that sometimes become scenographic, almost sculptural. In this dialogue between plastic art and theatricality he has forged his own artistic path in a totally self-taught way, creating shows of different formats, some in his own experimental search as an artist, as well as working for external projects as a costume designer and also in the artistic direction of shows for events.

As a teacher, he also gives some classes in the Sala Cuarta Pared, and gives creative seminars in different Theatre Festivals. Collaborates with the European project CROSSING STAGES 2013-2015 participating in the process of experimentation with costumes and materials for the Dance Hall of the UC3.

From 2013 he develops his own performance project "ESCAPARATE VIVO" which consists of creating stage productions inside a shop window towards the street, with which he has performed in various national and international festivals. In 2014 he exhibits in the MATADERO of Madrid a wardrobe specially created for EL REJÓN Encuadernaciones, entirely made with papers, books and furs. At the same time he left the company and the production of shows for events to focus on his career as a solo designer creating collaborative projects and investigating more fully the possibilities of the discourse between theatre, dance and plastic arts, while continuing to work as a performer in his own shows.
