My artistic journey began in 2020, in a simple and spontaneous way, without any academic background. I started with acrylic paints on canvas, but soon pushed beyond, driven by the desire to experiment. Every new material I discovered became a possibility: modeling pastes, sand, gravel, powders, rock fragments. Over time, I learned to create my own blends from scratch, mixing glues, fillers, gels, resins, and natural elements. This is how matter itself became the core of my research.
My work is a process of continuous growth. There wasn’t a single moment that changed my path—it has always been a constant curiosity, the urge to try and try again, even inventing the tools with which I spread and shape my pastes. Every gesture, every movement of the body becomes an integral part of the work. It is a physical language, a dialogue between me and the surface, gestures that leave their mark in the material.
I love feeding on suggestions: places, encounters, online explorations, artists discovered by chance. It’s not about copying, but about reworking, transforming what I see into something that becomes mine. Today, my experimentation has expanded to dialogue with technology: I create textures with artificial intelligence, transform them into 3D-printed sheets, and then cover them with my handmade blends. It is a meeting point between craftsmanship and innovation, between the physicality of gesture and the infinite possibilities of the digital.
What excites me, however, is not just the final result—it is the entire creative cycle. From choosing the wood at the carpenter’s shop, to preparing the blends, to waiting through long drying times, then spraying color with a compressor and spray gun, and finally finishing with epoxy resin. Every phase is a ritual, every passage has its own magic.
For me, art is freedom, discovery, a continuous life lesson. You know where you begin, but you don’t know where it will take you. This journey has brought me closer and closer to a sculptural approach: sculpting the material, not just painting it, to reveal what lies “behind the surface.”
Many of my works are born precisely from this idea: that behind every layer, every mask, every armor we build to protect ourselves, there is an authentic beauty that deserves to emerge. My art is an invitation to embrace this—to abandon superstructures and show ourselves for who we truly are. Imperfect, unique, alive.
