Scardecc
Ryan Scardecchio is a digital artist based in Philadelphia whose work is inspired by the mysteries of existence. As he puts it, "We just wake up one day and we are on this planet, no explanation as to why or how or if we came here before. There is so much we don’t know and can’t fathom, that we have to use our imagination to fill in the gaps, to make sense of it all.”
Ryan's surreal collages are a visual representation of his subconscious piecing together the unknown. "Making a collage is the purest form of creativity because there are no rules, no guidelines, nothing is off limits and absolutely anything is possible," he says. "The only limit I face is how deep inside my mind I’m willing to go to birth a new concept. My work is the digital manifestation of my inner explorations."
With a BA in Art and Design from East Stroudsburg University, Ryan currently works as a graphic designer for Event Strategy Group, creating large and small scale graphics for brands like Lenovo, Intel, Microsoft, HPE, Lincoln Financial, and Google. He has also been involved in the creative process and production of booth designs at major events like E3, CES, HIMSS, and Mobile World Congress.
Ultimately, Ryan's goal as an artist is to challenge viewers to think beyond what they know and look inward for answers. His work encourages us to explore the infinite possibilities of our own consciousness and to question the mysteries of our existence.
