I am Matteo Bellesia, a Milan-based visual artist, and I began my career in photography and digital image editing, co-founding the esteemed studio Velvet. I later expanded into directing with Trick or Treat, a video production company specialising in visual storytelling that merges fashion and CGI. My work embodies a cinematic aesthetic and dreamlike vision, blending iconic characters with comedy and glamour. I create works that fuse fashion and food, evoking refined, occasionally surreal experiences where characters amplify emotions. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with brands like Samsung, McDonald’s, Barilla, Acer. I am particularly intrigued by the evolving role of AI in visual expression, seeing it as a tool for boundless creativity and surprises.
