Vita / Lebenslauf:
Born in Rome, Italy.
I attended classical studies high school studying subjects such as Latin, Greek, Philosophy, art history, literature etc. These studies had a great impact on my life and personality.
After that, I got a MA degree in communication studies at the University of Rome La Sapienza. I always had a great interest for art history especially for the Renaissance and the Baroque and artists such as Caravaggio, Leonardo da Vinci, Hyeronimus Bosch, Arcimboldo and others. I started graphic arts as a selftaught and I developed my own style which I call as nostalgic patchworks for the sense of nostalgy and love for the past.
I am specialized in individual portraits.

I work as a freelance graphic artist on commissioned works.
I worked in the UK for the artwork of a Cd of grime and indie music that was inspired to the Grand Lodge. I also worked for a calendar for banking companies about the subject of the renewable energies. I worked on a project of portraits of the emperor Hadrian, Antinoo and Marguerite Yourcenar for the Hotel Adriano which is the place where the writer Marguerite Yourcenar used to live while writing Memories of Hadrian and which is located close to Villa Adriana in Tivoli, Italy.
I am currently working as a curator on an exhibition that is linked to the centenary of the Italian Futurism and will take place in Venice and showcase young contemporary artists from Italy, Greece, UK and USA.
I am also working at the moment for advertising images for an exhibition about the emperor Hadrian named \\\\\\\"Time and myth\\\\\\\" that will take place in Rome at the National Archive Building starting on the 15th of April 2009.
