The content of Mito’s work narrows down to the concept of memory and its reshaping, to materialization and new imagery. His attention is drawn mostly to the contemporary perception of events that are transmitted by the media.
Mito is inspired by the photographic registers on the internet, historical images, the manifestations of social structures, chronicles from rural traditions, hunting documentations and sporting events. He believes that painting is a process of framing and revealing the spaces in which he moves forms and neglected images that are dumped in mass virtual depots.
Mito graduated in 2008 with a Painting degree from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana. He is currently studying for an MA in Painting.
