Marco Mendeni's latest project, DayZ, is a series of portrays of avatar extrapolated from MOD video game ArmA2, DayZ. As Mendeni is interested in the mineral materiality of new technologies, especially gaming, these peculiar portraits are made of concrete, wood and, gesso. Another fascinating, sculptural game-influenced effort from one of Italy's most talented artists.
