This work ponders on the problems of water crisis and thirst in the world. It's "100% trash" made of 110 plastic bottles glued on the canvas. It describes the cycle of water, meaning the cycle of life, that starts in the abundance and ends up where this primary need is denied. While reflecting on the concept of things' lifespan, waste, and inequality, this piece puts in comparison wealth vs poverty, privilege vs exploitation, luxury vs indigence, consumerism vs famine. There is a dark side behind the clarity of the water we drink. Behind a bunch of emptied water bottles, there is a darkened kid. His image reveals the two sides of the same identity: the black, physical one, and the white, spiritual one. Both of them ask for us to reconsider the idea we have about human rights.

United States
My life began in Italy, in a small town nestled between the sea and the mountains. "Teate Degli Abruzzi", meaning, the "Land of Shepherds", is a wild and archaic territory where I spent most of my youth in close contact with the surrounding nature. My parents always told me that I began creating before I started talking. Indeed, some of my earliest memories are of days spent entirely gathering, reimagining, and crafting life from discarded things. Over the years, I have utilized the unique nature and dynamics of a multitude of materials – whether organic, inorganic, or synthetic – morphing them into new imagery and imbuing them with a new identity. Materials speak to me aloud. Despite their imperfections, rawness, and precariousness, they contain forces beyond our control in a continuous fluctuation between ephemerality and resilience. To this day, exploring the surroundings and gathering whatever inspires me is still the core of my practice. My process is led by a feeling of the transience of life which I strive to rehabilitate into a timeless dimension. I have exhibited extensively in Italy, Europe, and the US with critical acclaim since 1990. I've been living in the United States since 2015 working with numerous galleries across the country. I continue to investigate mixed media techniques as vehicles to embody my experiences and my vision of life.
