About

Born in Benevento, Italy, on 14/03/1977.Living between Paduli (Benevento) and Venice, ItalyTeaching draw in Venice"I paint dreamlike creatures with deformed traits and large eyes:they belong to an unreal worl, to the high sphere of reasonand to the low realm of instincts, halfway between the human being and the animal being. (Animal from Latin anima, meaning breath, soul).Sometimes I think that I paint monsters, at others that I want to humanize them..."
