Art is for me the tool to know and explore my inner world and then communicate it and share it with others. The recurring theme in my works is the portrait and the female body through which I can tell then free parts of me wounded and / or denied. As a teenager I suffered from a serious eating disorder that I overcame by leveraging my personal resources as in my family psychological support was something totally unhealted.
My mental disorder was then treated as a physical illness. I still remember the dramatically obsessive relationship I had with food and the distorted image I had of my body. Today being able to represent it with other faces and deform to my liking is a revolutionary and liberating act for me in which I try to break with the image of the "ideal woman" longed for and proposed by society through magazines, social media, TV.
Thanks to the design I accept and support the idea that feminine beauty does not necessarily have to be harmony of lines and proportions. Beauty is something much deeper, intimate, unique and therefore disconnected from the system. Beauty for me corresponds to authenticity and acceptance of oneself, to freedom and therefore free expression of what one is and not of what others would like from us. Social beliefs often cage, art serves to get rid of them.

Biography

I was born in Ancona (Italy) in 1979 where I lived until the age of 19 and then moved for study and work reasons in different cities and countries: first in Bologna, then in Buenos Aires now in Milan.

I was born in Ancona (Italy) in 1979 where I lived until the age of 19 and then moved for study and work reasons in different cities and countries: first in Bologna, then in Buenos Aires now in Milan. I have always dedicated myself to art and the social world. In the early years of my career I worked in a shelter for women and children victims of domestic violence and then instead took care of teaching Italian as a foreign and / or second language.
I returned from Argentina in 2016 after living there about 6 years. The experience lived in Latin America has made the relationship with art stronger and closer, especially from a physical point of view, being a particularly lively territory from the point of view of music and dance, which I practiced assiduously even if amateur.
On the other hand, Argentina has also helped me to disinhibit myself from an expressive point of view being an artistically "younger" country or at least more open to street art, the popular one lived and exhibited in parks, squares, cultural centers. An art open to all.
The artistic channels I prefer are poetry and drawing. In recent years I have participated in group exhibitions: one in Genoa at the doge's palace between December and January 2020/2021; in London in July 2021 and in Athens, in September of the same year, both organized by The Holy Art (virtual and physical art gallery based in London).
I have also participated with my drawings in some virtual exhibitions and I have been selected to be part of a catalog of emerging artists that will be released in February 2022, created by Guto Ajayu Culture (Madrid).
