I provide a certificate of authenticity and ownership of the work


This series of works arises from the need to reconnect with parts of my past and put myself in a position to interact with them again.
Technically, I proceed as follows: I choose one work among all those I have painted over the years, I print it and dilute with a solvent the ink I imprint on antique paper. The result is a mark resembling an imprint, which can be more or less visible, defined, legible; an imprint on which I intervene by hand using pastels, pencils, coffee, bitumen, acrylics, and other media.
The work is a UNIQUE and ORIGINAL piece and is housed in a 30x30 cm matting.

( If purchasing, after payment you can add shipping insurance at an additional cost of 3% of the sale price )

The work can also be picked up at the artist's studio in Rome.

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 various techniques and themes.
The female figure has always been present in my painterly research, even though over the years I have worked on other series, especially urban landscapes and scenes of anonymous crowds or individuals.
In 2015 I turned to antique postal material as a support for my works: letters, postcards, maps, letters and manuscripts, and the woman returned to being the exclusive protagonist of my painting.
For many years I have collaborated with numerous galleries, exhibited in solo and group shows, and 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 home-made residency project in which I stayed in a different house in each region of Italy, creating a painting in every residence. All produced material was later shown in Milan in November 2023 in a major solo exhibition at the Fondazione Matalon and in Rome in 2025 at WeGil.
