Go beyond who you are and what you know

Details

    After graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna (Italy), I moved to Dublin (Ireland) where I forgot for a while my artistic skills. Then a chance encounter with a group of young rappers from the city's suburbs reawakened my passion for art and music and the need to create. It was at that moment that "Anguilla" - my artistic essence - was born again.

    So I started developing a type of figurative art that mixes pop art, surrealism and the passion for Japanese anime. In art, I've always sought a spiritual dimension, something that could complement the physical world and add meaning to it. Making art for me means creating that connection.

    Art is a door that could bring you in another world, far from the limitations of the ordinary life we are used to live in.  Paintings, books, movies, music are these doors, it is up to the visitors decision whether to cross the threshold.

    My art is a reflection on travel as an apparent passage between various emotional and physical states and physical spaces, between inside and outside and the situation of the transit. Art is for me a necessary tool by which I question definitions we would consider granted, such as the one of "reality". I also try to investigate the female world, keeping in mind a child-like approach.

    My inspiration comes from music, cinema and Japanese anime. The work of surrealist artists, especially women, helped me finding the way to express my complexities.
