Nature as the source of my inspiration: through my works I aim to bring the spectator on an introspective journey in their own interior world to be able to touch with hand their own emotions and reach a condition of well-being
Data and contact details

Originally from Capri and based in Rome, my painting always stems from a sudden visual intuition: a flash of color through the leaves, light gliding across water, or a subtle vibration in the air. Nature is my muse, yet I never depict it figuratively; rather, I seek to leave a trace of it upon the canvas, intimately bound to my inner world and emotion. Within these atmospheres dwell the landscapes of my childhood, the vivid hues of the Mediterranean, and both the quiet stillness and vitality of my homeland.

In my practice, which relies primarily on oil painting, I navigate continuously between the weight of texture and the lightness of gesture. I often turn to fluid brushstrokes and translucent glazes in pursuit of calm and silence. At other times, I require a more tactile, visceral engagement, employing a palette knife and heavy-body oils to build textured layers charged with dynamic energy.

Color remains the essential core, in continuous dialogue with both the density of matter and the luminous transparency of light.

Along this journey, I feel a deep kinship with lyrical abstraction and masters such as Monet and Van Gogh: their ability to translate light and natural elements into pure emotional resonance echoes through my brushwork, where color and movement become direct expressions of the soul.

 

Before my canvases, an emotional resonance unfolds, inviting quiet contemplation. The absence of defined figurative forms creates an open, personal sanctuary—an intimate space to inhabit, discover a moment of peace, and embrace the possibility of renewal.
