A town is not just a cluster of houses. It is the sound of its fountains, the ringing of the bells, the smoke of the chimneys, the face of those who live there. The story that is made of it. Words that are like actions, like gestures, which narrate the usual and the legend, the said and the unsaid. ...

I was born in Sicily. The south and the Mediterranean are the roots of my soul and my feelings. I come from classical studies. I could have been a doctor if I had not met the Theater. And in the theater my infinite journey into Art begins. I am an actor and a director, a playwright and a writer. And I love using the verb to be, because I have never done in my life what I am not. I love playing with lights, a game that I have fed by landing on photography until being an honorable mention at the IPA in Los Angeles in 2017. And in the game of lights, I found painting, a language that allows me countless escapes, each of which brings me back to myself.
"I am what I don't know." So says a character in one of my stories. And it's a phrase that comes from the most intimate part of myself, because my whole life, up to this point, has been a continuous search, a continuous pushing beyond my own limits. Art has certainly been the means, and I'm not referring to the technique of expression; on the contrary, it has always been secondary to exploring the deepest folds of my soul. Painting is for me like a catharsis that comes to life in the shapes and colors spread on the canvas; of shadow and light. Shadows that I try to illuminate and lights that I would like to fade. It's the need for a space of quiet; but it continually escapes. And I realize that my painting could be summed up in a single phrase: what I don't know.
