About me

I was born on the island of Ischia, where the natural landscape shaped my earliest sensibilities. As a teenager I moved to Naples to study art, and later to Rome, where I now live and work as an artist & designer. My path has always been guided by a need to transform what I feel into something visible—an instinct that became both a language and a discipline.

My artistic research combines a graphic, almost digital aesthetic with a fully manual process. I work with pens, markers and ink, building dense surfaces made of lines, curves and branching forms. This approach allows me to create a visual rhythm where chaos and harmony coexist. Inside these intertwined structures I hide fragments of my experience: memories, thoughts, emotional shifts. My work is, in many ways, a map of my inner life.

What drives me is the desire to express the tension between what is visible and what remains beneath the surface. Each piece begins with spontaneity, but gradually becomes something deliberate—an encounter between instinct, memory and form. My practice is an ongoing attempt to capture the movement of the inner world and translate it into something that feels alive, honest and in constant transformation.
