BRIEF BIO
I have always drawn, since I was a child. I approached painting in 2004, self-taught. In the early years I experimented with different techniques and themes.
The female figure has always been present in my painting research, even if over the years I worked on other series of works, especially urban landscapes and scenes of anonymous crowds or individuals.
In 2015 I approached ancient postal material as a support for my works: envelopes, postcards, maps, letters and manuscripts, and woman returned to being the exclusive protagonist of my painting.
For many years I have collaborated with numerous galleries, I have had solo and group exhibitions, and I regularly participate in art fairs.
Since 2014 I have a painting studio in Rome, in Trastevere.
In 2021, following the covid period, I conceived Marginalia, a project of homemade residencies in which I stayed in a different house in each region of Italy, producing a painting in each residence. All produced material was then exhibited in Milan in November 2023 in a large solo show at the Fondazione Matalon.
At the beginning of 2025 I started working on “Il Caffè,” a project in progress that entails 100 interview-meetings with 100 different women in 100 coffee bars in Rome and surrounding areas, to highlight the value of meeting, listening, and living consciously every moment. Each of these meetings gives rise to a full portrait of the interviewed woman, made of painting, words, and video.
