Artist Statement:
All my works tell a story about a physical or mental journey. Each of them refers to someone relaxing their mind and body and then falling into a dreamless sleep, from which thought is generated. The fundamental themes of my paintings are represented by symbols: flamingos, dragonflies, ships, mermaids... Everything is connected to the idea of travel, of migration. My work tells about memories, about present and future, all of them living together in a single temporal dimension.

Biography:
I was born in Crema, Italy. After studying at the Artistic Lyceum 'Bruno Munari', I graduated in 2005 at Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan with a first class honour. I worked as a Tutor on an ornamental plastic and sculpture course at Brera Academy of Fine Arts, where I assisted sculptor Guido Lodigiani. Following a period spent in Tokyo, I developed a passion for Japanese traditional painting which would strongly influence my artistic path.
