I love the contamination between the various elements of art: painting, architecture, sculpture, fashion, photography. There is never a particular intention, the works manifest themselves, little by little they take shape and the aim is to create something that has to do with the meticulous work of the hands (painting, embroidery, decoration, carving) . My art is absolutely contaminated by architecture, design, graphics, animals (especially calfskin), humans, tanneries, alchemy, textures and haute couture. I recycle waste leathers that I recover from tanneries and reuse them, together with the act of painting that has the leather itself as a support, sometimes like spots of color, textures or embroideries with the intention of creating irregular surfaces that casts shadows in the spaces where they are. The artwork SOFFOCA-menti # 1 is part of a series of two elements.
