About

Born in Asolo, in Northern Italy, Marco Baldisser grew up within a local tradition of fine craftsmanship and decorative arts. Now based in New Zealand, he continues that lineage through the timeless practice of Venetian plaster and traditional Italian surface techniques.

​

As the master artisan behind Artemani Surfaces, Marco has established a reputation for excellence in Venetian plastering and bespoke decorative finishes across architectural and interior projects. His artistic practice extends this craftsmanship into a more personal field of research; exploring polished plaster, bas-relief, and gilding as forms of contemporary art.

​

Trained under Italian master Paolo Bellò, Marco refines historical techniques through a modern lens, developing a language that bridges past and present. His current work focuses on sculptural wall artworks and decorative reliefs that bring the expressive depth of Italian plaster into today’s interiors.
