a kick in the ass Print

A creative person needs examples and can observe and acquire them through work, cultural and sentimental experiences. The more you experience, the more message takes shape. The decision to change often occurs thanks to episodes immediately considered trivial; when they happen, the objectives change. As far as I'm concerned, the desire to leave my message has given me the tools to take care of my art, of my written words with a full presence in the creative world. In my works, both artistic and literary, I want to show another vision, different from the obvious one and before everyone's eyes. A hidden perspective and message that if seen will make you think. It's not easy to remember what my first thoughts were on October 10, 1969, shortly before I was born in Turin (Italy), but I know for sure what my father and mother thought. I feel the same feelings towards my daughter Marina, born from my marriage to Elena, thoughts that often inspire my artistic works and which have inspired the story told in my books. Living in a difficult city forced me to free my mind, direct my ideas towards art as creation. Creating allows me to talk about life and the problems of a world that conditions existence. I have the memory of my father who taught me to dream, to create and to write poems, aphorisms and stories. Over time, memories and colors have become a pleasant, private and personal game. Growing up in a difficult neighborhood shaped me and my family helped me chase my goals. The idea of telling life through painting, photography, Land art, Street art, the people I met has made my art a channel of communication. Young people and adults of all ages have always been an example for me where I can draw ideas. Curiosity made me discover many crumbs of truth in the history of this strange world.
