I AM

a visual artist, art director and film producer. I was born in Pescara (Italy) in 1994, I currently live in Rome, where I graduated in Economic Sciences in 2018.
I founded my Creative Hub, Il Varco srl, with which I produce cinema and art exhibitions. I founded Prisma Art Prize, an art prize curated by Domenico De Chirico of which I am artistic director and which has its exhibition venue at Contemporary Cluster in Palazzo Brancaccio, Rome.

 

MY ARTISTIC PRACTICE

currently focuses on painting. I paint using various mediums (acrylic, oil, industrial paint, wall paint, spray), mainly on canvas. My figuration investigates the existence of man in contemporary society, representing his loss of identity within the technological and globalized reality.

My work aims to be a criticism of contemporary society, where human beings are seen as consumers without intimacy and dignity.

My subjects express strong incommunicability, in a universe full of repressed energies. However, I try to find harmony within my images, working primarily through color complexities.
