Scagni Diego is a multi-artist as he works as an illustrator and graphic designer, in addition to scripts and pursue music.
His works are characterized by high contrast and low use of color, almost all his works are developed in black and white, hand in paper, cardboard, cloth or wood and then digitally operated, creating a kind of collage.
He was born on September 12, 1982 in Buenos Aires, Argentina and began to draw from a very young, seven year old took his first lesson in drawing and painting, then perfected with the passing of time and seeing many artists, both painters, illustrators, cartoonists and graphic designers, whom he admires (Alberto Breccia, Quino, Horacio Cardo, Horacio Lalia, Jim Lee, Mondrian, Jackson Pollock, etc.).
Was devoted long, more than anything in its first stage, to make cartoons in which developed its own scripts, and became interested in the different structures of writing and studying Social Communication at the Universidad Nacional de La Matanza.
His goal was always to break the molds of the established visually and going to shock the viewer, often based, in his words, "in exploring the beauty of darkness, in one way or another, all of us in ".
In the mid-nineties left to devote to comics, to roll over completely to the illustration and graphic design. Now all your comics resting at home "enclosed in a box painted black mourning, hoping to forget a very sad time in his life", as it had begun to look naive and unsuccessfully working artist at age twelve. It is then that frustration led him to refocus his career and go to graphic design as a gateway to the conjunction of their ideas.
Developed a theory about art and graphic design, called "Reflections on the absence of art," where, based on texts by Kandinsky, the Bauhaus school, Dadaist manifestos, among others, tries to explain that art exists only in Inside, in the mind, are the ideas and that nothing of what we call "art" it is really only "works" that rarely come to represent original thinking that conceived.
This theory was never finished writing, he said "because if the write and let cool the idea of having it in mind to display it and remove the sense that it is: an idea. "
