The work: My World
My research stems from the need to restore a balance between human beings and the world — a stable point of reference in response to the precariousness of our time. Matter is my language. Not a medium, but image itself: a living presence, carrier of meaning. A mixture of sands, resins and pigments, developed through years of experimentation, applied in layers and shaped by hand — a surface that invites touch as much as sight. The aerial perspective introduces a distance that simplifies, distils, reveals the essence of the landscape. Fragments of our planet become microcosms to explore: traces of earth, memory and time. Through this work I seek an ancient and universal order — the one that unites human beings with the Earth.
The work in Architecture
Matter has body. It emerges from the surface, absorbs light, generates shadows that shift throughout the day. It is not an element applied to the space — it is a presence that inhabits and transforms it. By nature, it sits close to the materials architects know well: stone, marble, wood, fabric. The palette works through subtraction, never contrast. Integration feels almost instinctive. But the effect on the end client goes beyond the visual. A tactile, handcrafted, organic surface creates a bond with the space — something difficult to explain and impossible to ignore. Luxury today is increasingly defined by this quality: the handmade, time made visible in matter, the presence of something alive. This work is rooted in an Italian culture of making — attention to material, balance between form and meaning. Bringing a work into an international project means bringing this identity: recognisable, distinctive, unrepeatable. A work with its own character does not overshadow the project. It makes it memorable.
