Carlo Grassini


About

Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
I live & paint in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, New York USA
My neighborhood is a thriving multi-national mix. It has the distinction of being the 3rd and fastest growing Asian community in New York City, USA

I live off the energy around me. I primarily use paint & other graphic media to explore the endless course of action that has been part of my being from my earliest memories. I grew up in a music family. My father taught my brother and I, at an early age, to make music: piano and wood winds. Our mother taught us how to survive: we learned how to cook, care for ourselves & to have a love for life. All important skills I cherish to this day.

I write as another form of personal expression, thus, TEXT is also an important element & finds its way into to my ART. I still play the piano & continue to explore the richness of sound. I like to dance too.
