STATEMENT

Cavallero’s work explores the visual language used to describe the natural and phenomenological world around us. An underlying theme in the work is a sense of discovery. The viewer is made to explore the work like they would a map or a diagram: something that could contain information or provide insight. The viewer then becomes the discoverer, exploring a new space, looking for connections and relationships. It is important that the imagery implies content, but it is not required to contain factual information. The work ultimately suggests that art and science, fact and fiction, speculation and knowledge, spectacle and wonderment, are not mutually exclusive; and that critical thought and the quest for knowledge and betterment must recognize both realms.
