Born in 1996, graduated at the Accademia di Architettura di Mendrisio in 2021 with professor Bijoy Jain from Studio Mumbai. During my university studies, I cultivated my passion for art and painting, intensifying my artistic production after finishing my degree. In my works I convey everything that impresses me, places, objects, people and stories. In recent years I have traveled a lot, in a way that I had never experienced before, meeting people and cultures completely distant from ours. It is in these pilgrimages that a new conception of beauty is arose in me, made of simplicity and a deeper understanding of visual and spiritual language. The stones I find during my travels become mediums capable of expressing a beauty characterized by a return to practice, to knowing the earth as a raw material, able to animate and make an eternal work.
