Enzo Marra

Enzo Marra is an artist who works across painted works which deviate from the figuratively inspired to instinctive abstract unplanned happenings. Their themes relating to the lived experience and how easily things can be ignored and refused as they don’t fit into what should be seen. Their themes relating to the dead and discarded, the broken and old. Subjects which he actively finds and explores.
