I found a bull’s eye, staring straight into my eyes. I found it disjoint into three parts, each one lying in a different location. Even divided, it stared back at me, as if it already knew me, which is why I gathered and rejoined the sections. Once reunited, the bull’s eye began to narrate again, […]

ART(E)
A small cart, the kind children improvise and use to move materials and sometimes imitate the adult’s (adult/Great) work. A small cart, but very heavy, embodying the weight of its own immaterial content. A cart I pulled many times in my youth, and which allowed me to pinpoint and visualize something I didn’t yet know […]
Bianco Soprintendenza
(White Superintendence)
I have removed small areas of white plaster from the walls of various spaces. I perform these strips in places connected to the world of art and culture in general, in academies, museums, art galleries, collectors’ homes, churches, etc. Each strip takes its name from its original setting, thus generating “Academy White,” “Gallery White,” “Museum […]
Paura del(l’uomo) Nero?
(Fear of the Boogeyman?)
Black, dark with black eyes. I absorb all the optical radiations that strike me, without reflecting any back to stimulate the eye. I am the vision of the eye of the one who looks at me when no visible light reaches me. Once again, unstable, restless images that cannot be hung sedentarily and that also […]

(Being passport photo)
Hoary (white), blue eyes, I reflect on the optical radiations that strike me, paying particular attention to the stimulation of the eye. I am the vision of the eye of the one who looks at me when all the visible light reaches me. Once again, unstable, restless images that cannot be hung sedentarily and that […]

Posatoio
More than an object, the Perch is a place where one can freely stop and take a position. It’s a rest area whose shape resembles six different support surfaces, each corresponding to a different mode of rest. You can lean on it by resting on one or both elbows. You can rest on it by […]

Autogirapollici
The Autogirapollici (Automatic Thumb Turner is an electromechanical device designed and created to twiddle one’s thumbs while keeping both hands completely relaxed and without intentionally moving them. The machine itself takes care of pulling the fingers. The expression “Twiddling one’s thumbs” commonly represents a lack of initiative and illustrates an inactive state. In our case, […]

Consertore
The verb “to conserere” specifically alludes to the action of intertwining and joining. The Consertore is a bronze tool that becomes embodied and almost completely disappears from view when exposed. Its shape is obtained by sliding its surface over the skin of the folded arms, which intertwine almost like a bow tie. The object is […]
