These figures represent his alter-ego by which he represents his desires and unconscious emotions as opposed to contemporary society. Authoritative figures who are at the same time powerful leaders and witnesses of the environments in which they live.\r\nHis creative style is a continuous struggle aimed at achieving a balance between form and color and obtained in a surreal way. As a starting point for his work, Cordero reworks and interprets in his style the images of paintings that made art history.\r\n<\/span><\/p><\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>Matteo moves easily and spontaneously in his world of figures and colors. A simple, polite, calm young man, he shows his hidden side in the stories of his paintings.
