Born in Italy, I began sketching before I could write and started moving with my family at a young age. Since then, I have never stopped traveling and changing homes, experiences that have deeply shaped my artistic journey.
Currently based in Mijas, a picturesque pueblo blanco on Spain's southern coast, I draw inspiration from the rugged sierra, the deep blues of the Mediterranean, and the distant peaks of Morocco.
My artistic path has been influenced by a diverse range of experiences, including the restoration of ancient paintings in Italy, studying illustration in Argentina, and exploring analog photography in Madrid.
In 2009, I opened my first studio in Cadaqués, followed by a residency at 59Rivoli in Paris. In 2016, I moved to Barcelona, where I worked at Nauart Espai de Creació, before relocating to Madrid and joining Espacio Mediodía.
While in Barcelona, I expanded my practice to include humanitarian initiatives supporting migrants, collaborating with the City Council and NGOs such as Doctors of the World. This work sparked my passion for art therapy, leading me to specialize in assisting unaccompanied minor migrants at Casa Árabe in Madrid.
Having survived a coma as a child and a road accident later in life, my physical experiences have shaped my spiritual journey of healing and self-discovery. This led me to explore art and self-care practices, eventually becoming a QiGong practitioner alongside my work as an artist and art therapist.
Now living near the borderlands of Africa, I feel a deep connection to this crossroads of cultures. It compels me to explore a recurring theme in my work: the intersection of physical and spiritual journeys, which I see embodied in the lives of migrants.
My commitment to using art as a tool to support vulnerable communities stems from a deep belief in its power to heal emotional wounds and alleviate suffering. I view art not only as a means of personal expression but as a transformative force capable of fostering connection, understanding, and resilience.
Through my work, I aim to empower others, offering them a space for healing and self-discovery, while reinforcing the idea that creativity can be a path to collective healing and social change.
