ABOUT ME        

I create to stay alive — and to keep playing.
Art, for me, is both a gesture of mending and a space of discovery: a thread that holds together memory, dream and rupture, while opening new paths to explore.

​

I work across painting, sculpture, installation, performance and drawing, moving freely between media to give form to what resists definition.

My process is guided by intuition and transformation — a dialogue between control and surrender.

Much of my work is made with what has been discarded: cardboard, plastic fragments, broken wood, worn fabrics. I often use papier-mâché, a technique I learned in the traditional "botteghe" of Lecce, where I encountered the poetic power of craft and reinvention. These humble, salvaged materials become vessels for emotion and symbolic resonance.

Each gesture — stitched or splashed, assembled or torn — contributes to a fragile, playful and resilient story.

​

My background in philosophy and anthropology of religions informs my practice, weaving together esotericism and folklore, childhood and play.

​

After living and studying around Europe, I returned to Southern Italy to reconnect with my roots and inner landscapes. I currently work from my studio in Vienna.

​

Through my practice I seek to build bridges: between strength and vulnerability, personal scars and collective stories, between what has been lost and what still insists on becoming.
This is how I create — not to explain, but to play and to transform.
