Data and contact details

Born in Rome in 1993, I have worked as a curator in both institutions and in independent spaces within Abruzzo and the city of Rome.
I attained a Masters Degree in Archaeology after which I worked as a freelance journalist for several magazines such as Berlino Magazine (Berlin), Inside Art and Exibart in Rome.
As curator and event organizer, I curated the Fotonica exhibition-presentation at Ombrelloni Art Space in 2022. I curated as a staff assistant for Elisabetta Benassi's show "Empire" in Museo Nazionale Romano-Palazzo Altemps in 2019. I was also curator for the Bruno Melappioni exhibition at the Museo dell'Arte Classica (Sapienza Università di Roma) in 2018, in collaboration with Tommaso Zijno. Finally, I collaborated on the International Midsummer Festival film exhibition in Abruzzo (AQ) and at the Med Film Festival in Rome.
Currently I am curator of Livia Giuliani (TeppaElle), Giulia Barone and Chiara Amici and I work in Art Files-Tools for culture. My interests focus on the contemporary in relation to the ancient literature and art. I am fascinated by how artists reinterpret intimate human themes in a post-modern key.
