“My work is little more than an experiment”

I was born in Bassano del Grappa and I went to live in Venice after graduating at Brescia & Venice Art School.
Since I was a child, I’ve been more sensitive to images and colours rather than words, that’s why I started drawing at a very young age.
To me, it’s all about telling stories belonging to our time or maybe to all times; stories that are not judging us, not claiming to teach us something but simply showing themselves to us, as we cannot see.
I can’t say how much my work can really be defined as “Art”.
If someone wants to find some “art” in my stories, I’ll be glad but if they want to name them differently, then it’s fine. What is important to me is that the observers could stop and stare at my work thinking about what I meant to say with it.
