ErProsit, stage name of Michele Santini, was born in Rome in 1993, where he currently lives and works. After high school, he approached the world of cinematic make-up and special effects, an experience that allowed him to deepen his knowledge of materials and live modeling techniques. From there grew an ever-increasing curiosity toward sculpture and the creative possibilities of resin, a material that would become the core of his artistic research.
Over the years, he gained artisanal experience experimenting with wood, leather, and resins, collaborating with various Roman workshops and supporting artists and designers in complex projects. Starting in 2021, he began presenting his own installations, creating works that combine technical precision with symbolic imagination.
His artistic language has developed around works such as Molteplice Dualismo and Icone, pieces that marked important milestones in his exhibition path through solo shows, group exhibitions, and international showcases. Among these stand out his participation in RAW Rome Art Week, the selection and exhibition of Icone in Basel and New York with ARTBOXY, as well as collaborations with international galleries such as Horton Gallery in Seoul.
With the large permanent installation Ninfe, created for the Aeson Festival in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, he extended his work beyond traditional exhibition spaces, merging it with nature. At the same time, he collaborated with museum institutions and internationally renowned artists, such as the Post Scriptum project at MACRO in Rome, engaging with diverse artistic languages while always preserving his personal imprint.
Today, he continues to pursue a research path that intertwines craftsmanship, experimentation, and symbolism, transforming each work into an invitation to see matter not as a simple substance but as a living metaphor of identity, fragility, and metamorphosis.
