Marco Conti Šikić (MCSK) is an Italian-Croatian visual artist and technologist whose interdisciplinary practice bridges the realms of contemporary art, activism, and emerging technologies. Born and raised in the former Yugoslavia during a period of conflict, his early exposure to instability deeply informed his creative resilience and commitment to socially engaged artmaking.
He pursued his formal education in architecture and visual arts at the University "La Sapienza" in Rome and École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Paris-Val de Seine. Early in his professional trajectory, he collaborated with esteemed architectural firms, including those of Jean Nouvel and Renzo Piano, where he specialized in 3D visualization and design.
Since 2016, Conti Šikić has dedicated himself fully to contemporary art, developing a hybrid visual language that integrates classical techniques with advanced digital processes, including artificial intelligence, algorithmic coding, and generative media. His work has been exhibited internationally, with notable series such as DOMVS, which explores the intersection of digital painting and sculptural 3D aesthetics.
In 2021, he founded Code Green, a pioneering nonprofit operating at the nexus of Web3, environmental justice, and artistic innovation. As its Artistic Director, he leads initiatives that harness blockchain technology and creative expression to address pressing climate and social issues.
A lifelong ocean advocate and surfer, Conti Šikić channels his personal connection to nature into a broader vision of sustainability, collective action, and transformative art. His ongoing practice is rooted in collaboration, experimentation, and a commitment to cultural and ecological resilience.
