It will be possible to visit the exhibition from September 06 to 20 2025 from Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 12 PM and from 5 PM to 7 PM. Entry free.

The solo exhibition is curated by art historian Dr. Carmela Loiacono, promoted by Lega Navale Italiana - Sezione di Matera Magna Grecia and MaterAcqua with the sponsorship of Comune di Matera Provincia di Matera and Ambiente Basilicata.

Presentation of solo exhibition and artist:

The idea for the solo exhibition arose from the close collaboration between art historian Carmela Loiacono and artist Marc Noël Avatar who together invested a great deal of time dedication and passion in creating a unique and inimitable experience: an invitation to discover something completely new and different not a conventional art exhibition but rather an exhibition of quantum paintings. 

Marc Noël Avatar's artworks can be appreciated from three distinct perspectives: in daylight under UV light and in complete darkness where surprisingly they remain visible and come to life even in the absence of light. 

The exhibition becomes a discovery where visitors are invited to perceive these different facets. Each work is imbued with a unique and special energy.

Marc Noël Avatar was born in Belgium and is an internationally recognized artist. His artistic career is atypical and does not stem from classical training. From an early age he had a passion for pencil drawing. However it was at the age of 26 following a serious car accident that left him in a coma and forced him into seven years of rehabilitation that his artistic vision truly evolved.

The rehabilitation period was difficult but thanks to his perseverance and the professionalism of an exceptional therapist specializing in supporting children with motor disorders Marc Noël Avatar began to master every gesture and every action and discovered a growing fascination with the creative process.

Later the art of Shodo a Japanese gestural calligraphy entered his life. He met talented professionals who taught him the power of this discipline in which each brushstroke is imbued with a vital energy a breath called “chi.” Today every brushstroke he creates is charged with this essence. Shodo has profoundly influenced his creations and he has also developed his own techniques by observing other Japanese artists. 

His approach is unique fueled by constant self-taught learning. His art which he calls quantum painting is inspired by the principles of quantum physics in science where the observer influences the result.

His works are a reflection of his intention created in daylight with acrylic paints featuring a variety of bright and powerful colors and designed to make the invisible tangible leaving the viewer with the power to feel interpret become and inviting them to engage beyond mere viewing.

His desire is to create a hypnotic magic where each observation of a work reveals a new perception influenced by each person's personal evolution. Those who own his works testify to a continuous experience discovering new dimensions every day.

Therefore Marc Noël Avatar seeks to make the invisible not only visible but also palpable establishing a deep and evolutionary connection with his art.His approach is unique fueled by constant self-taught learning. His art which he calls quantum painting is inspired by the principles of quantum physics in science where the observer influences the result.
