**_Prologue_**

In the contemporary artistic landscape, [Matteo Mauro](https://twitter.com/mattmaurostudio) stands out for his ability to merge the ancient and the modern, the good and the bad, in generative creations that challenge conventions.

Born in Sicily and based in London and Milan, Mauro has transformed the traditional method of engraving and sculpture with contemporary representation techniques.

**Dialogue**

➩How would you describe your art using just three words?

_Good and Bad._

➩Could you outline your usual creative process?

_The typical creative process begins by studying precedents and inspirations regarding the topic or focus of study on hand. Once inspired and ready for production, detailed production process begins. Even while working with computers, physical tests are carried along during the whole creation process._

➩What key advice would you give to someone starting in crypto art?

_Crypto art requires learning about blockchain technology and the unwritten values of the community. Crypto art can be embraced only if the artist marries with the movement as a whole._

➩What are your plans for the short, medium, and long term?

_I wish to push my boundaries developing an extensive generative art series._

➩Who has been your greatest artistic influence or inspiration?

_The study of the history of art._

➩As an individual, what is your most profound aspiration?

_Working towards the realisation of the many undeveloped ideas. Creating a working wheel in which profit and investment in new art projects can roll unstopped._

➩If you could ask one question to a specific artist on SuperRare, who would it be and what would you ask?

_I would like to ask_ [_Xcopy_](https://twitter.com/XCOPYART) _what socks he is wearing._

**Epilogue**

Matteo Mauro takes us on a journey of continuous discovery, where each piece is an experiment in artistic generation and technological expression. His aspirations reflect a commitment to innovation and the constant development of novel ideas, seeking to create a perpetual cycle of creation and reinvestment in art.
