I studied Fine Arts at Accademia di Brera, Milan, Italy and at Akademie der Bildenden Künste, Munich, Germany.
The starting point of my work is sculpture and in general I use clay as a basic material. For my three-dimensional works I then build a base of words, a performative frame, a soundscape, an immaterial plinth. Whether video, performances, text, sound, NFTs, I always find new forms of presentation for my sculptures.
Basically, I don't want my work to be in this world; I would like it to be another. I want to punch a notch in reality with my works. My art is a process in which reality turns out to be more and more an illusion, an immaterial material, and my person as an art-creating art figure comes to the fore, fishing fragments of another, new reality out of my own consciousness.
