BRIEF BIO
I have always drawn, ever since I was a child. I began painting in 2004, as a self-taught artist. In the early years, I experimented with various techniques and themes.
The female figure has always featured in my artistic research, although over the years I have also worked on other series, especially urban landscapes and scenes of anonymous crowds or individuals.
In 2015, I began using antique postal materials as a support for my work: envelopes, postcards, maps, letters and manuscripts. Women once again became the sole protagonists of my paintings.
For many years, I have collaborated with numerous galleries, exhibited in solo and group shows, and regularly taken part in art fairs.
Since 2014, I have had a painting studio in Trastevere, Rome.
In 2021, following the Covid period, I conceived Marginalia, a project of home-made residencies in which I was hosted in a different home in every region of Italy, creating a painting at each residency. All the work produced was then exhibited in Milan in November 2023 in a major solo show at the Matalon Foundation.
At the beginning of 2025, I began work on “Il Caffè,” an ongoing project involving 100 interview-meetings with 100 different women in 100 cafés and coffee bars in Rome and the surrounding area. The project draws attention to the value of meeting, listening, and living each moment mindfully. Each meeting gives rise to a full-length portrait of the woman interviewed, created through painting, words and video.
