I live and work in Rome, where I was born in 1983.
I have always known that I wanted to paint, and brushes and paints have been my constant companions since I was a young child. After art high school I graduated in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and began my artistic career with galleries phisical and on line.
I paint simply because I love to paint. I paint because nothing else touches me in the same way and it gives my life meaning. My life and my art are inextricably entwined.I paint because it requires a special dedication to time. When I paint, time stands still and I feel free.
My artistic quest, which is constant and ongoing, is a search for the union between line and colour. By line I mean a modern, fluid, dynamic representation which is not locked into rigid realistic systems, and which flows into an ‘expressionist’ use of colour: the colour forms the subject together with the line and amplifies and intensifies it.
