ARTIST STATEMENT
My practice investigates how structures are formed, disrupted, and reassembled. Through painting, works on paper, textile intervention, and spatial construction, I explore states of instability where order and uncertainty coexist.
Working with acrylic, charcoal, oil pastel, wool, cotton thread, textiles, paper, canvas, and found materials, I build visual systems that are repeatedly interrupted and renegotiated. I intentionally introduce materials not traditionally associated with painting, placing them within the pictorial space to challenge conventional boundaries of the medium and expand its expressive possibilities. Painted gestures, drawn lines, cuts, ruptures, and stitched interventions become records of tension between control and disruption, intuition and analysis, fragility and resilience. Thread functions not as decoration but as an active element that binds, redirects, obstructs, and reconstructs the image.
My background in biology and the human sciences informs my interest in systems, transformation, and interconnectedness. It shapes the way I construct visual frameworks, while rupture, material intervention, and intuition continuously challenge and transform them. Rather than producing fixed compositions, I approach each work as an evolving system in which the material itself actively participates in the construction of meaning.
Projects such as Utopie Reattive, Astrattismi Analitici, Equilibri Sbilanciati, and Beyond the Container investigate these questions through painting, drawing, rupture, and repair. While each series approaches them from a different perspective, they all examine how structures are interrupted, displaced, transformed, and reimagined. The painted surface—whether canvas or paper—becomes a site of negotiation where intention and material behaviour continuously reshape one another.
Alongside these painting-based investigations, works such as Synthetic Garden, Distazioni di Massa, and Nuvole Affannate explore the same concerns through material and spatial experimentation. Textile elements extend beyond the painted surface, introducing tension, weight, gravity, and physical interaction. Positioned between painting, object, and installation, these works allow material behaviour itself to participate in the construction of meaning.
Across these bodies of work, I approach the artwork as a dynamic system rather than a fixed image. Whether on canvas, paper, or in space, each work evolves through a continuous negotiation between structure and disruption, intention and material behaviour. By embracing uncertainty as an essential part of the process, I seek forms that remain open to adaptation, transformation, and multiple ways of being understood.
