An Aubusson tapestry crafted by the Bernet workshop in 2023
In 2014, after dedicating 15 years to leading creative direction in digital marketing, Squizzato chose to conclude his entrepreneurial journey. This pivotal decision allowed him to pursue a long-held aspiration : expanding his pictorial universe across diverse mediums while maintaining his role as an art director. Squizzato’s personal artistic journey and his collaborations with brands are not opposing endeavors. Instead, they embody the paradox of globalized capitalism—a contemporary ideology that both motivates and challenges artists, creating a world where contradictory actions coexist more prominently than ever.
From that point on, the days he spent in his studio gave rise to a style, a visual grammar he named «New Constructivism.»
As a multidisciplinary artist driven by an endlessly curious and playful spirit, his work reflects a world that has been accelerating relentlessly since the post-war era. Through unapologetic cynicism or poetic metaphors. He aims to explore the dualities inherent in the individual, the couple, the group, and their habitat.
His creations are organized into distinct series, each embodying its own unique approach. Some are precise and methodical, inspired by architecture and geometric abstraction, while others are instinctive and raw, featuring distorted portraits, snapshots of fleeting moments, or individuals lost in their contemporary solitude. For Squizzato, art is an infinite field of freedom—a way to transcend standardization, classification, and the monotony of everyday life.

He enjoys juggling between traditional painting tools in the studio and an intensive use of new technologies to make technique obsolete, prioritize emotion, and create a body of work that is both classical and contemporary. Since 2015, his work has been regularly exhibited and included in private collections worldwide.
As a devoted admirer of Paul Klee he fully embraces the Shadoks’ philosophy, inspired by the great painter himself : «Why make it simple when you can make it complicated?»
For Squizzato, the journey of learning, self-discovery, and overcoming uncertainty lies in the endless repetition of gestures. Yet, the ideas that emerge—those fleeting sparks of inspiration—remain singular and irreplaceable.
Through abstraction and minimalism, he breathes life into universal visions on canvas or murals, leaving them open to the interpretation of each viewer.
“Figure it out for yourselves…
or feel free to talk to me.”
