Vasco Diogo

In the experimental realm of contemporary art, few artists embrace the multifaceted complexity of media like Vasco Diogo. Known as an experimental director, performer, and video artist, Diogo’s work stands out in the crowded field of new media for its intricate exploration of self, technology, and the often surreal interplay between image and meaning. His art challenges the observer to question what is real, what is performed, and what lies in the liminal space between life and art.

Interview with Vasco Diogo

Working with different media and exploring boundaries between different media requires a lot of research and several years of practice and experimentation. Sometimes you have to focus on a single medium for some time – as I am now doing with electronic music and poetry – to establish theoretical, practical and technical links to other forms of expression you feel more comfortable with. Combining different artistic languages is always putting yourself in a position of fragility and emotional risk, as if you were understanding the whole universe for the first time. That also involves what is now called an aesthetics of failure.
