Story of the Octopus with a Heartshaped Head
from 2007 in Show 5 Animal’s Planet
I have chosen to live and work in Naples, South Italy.
I graduated from the Fine Arts Accademy in Naples and studied Philosophy at I.U.O, Naples. I am currently studying yoga.
My work combines traditional arts (sculpture, photography, video, painting, drawing, writing) with digital media. My perspective investigates contemporary society in terms of identity, memories, processes of construction/de-construction of a community’s values.
I look at the lack and/or the removal of memory, at individual awareness and/or unconscious perceptions, and their reverberation in the socio-economic dynamics and cultural practices through the enlightenment of the fiscal evidences of objects, songs, words, sound as reified memories.
