As a fine artist and gallery owner, I am driven by an empirical approach to my creative practice. I believe that the aesthetic result of my work is the outcome of a deep search for tangible harmony, which is evident in my business practices. My expertise in the art world has been developed through years of dedication to my craft, and I take pride in the fact that good art is the product of not only skills but also of wisdom.As a fluent speaker of Italian and Spanish, I am able to connect with a diverse audience and communicate effectively with many artists and collectors from around the world.My journey in the art world began at the age of 17, when I was selected to participate in a curated biennial in Caracas. From there, I went on to be represented by Ars Forum Gallery and established myself as a set designer and scenic painter for several Italian corporations. It was during this time that I met my first serious art dealer and gallery owner in New York City, Monique Goldstrom.Currently, I am the director of the gallery that I founded and co-own, Artspace 8 in 900 N Michigan Ave in Chicago. My role involves managing and helping to propel the art exhibits and projects of over twenty local and international fine artists that I represent. I take pride in providing a platform for emerging and established artists to showcase their work and connect with collectors and art enthusiasts.My work is a celebration of the transformation and bonding of elements, resulting in new qualities and harmony. I draw inspiration from the world around me, channeling the challenges people face into my work while integrating everyday elements and my spiritual vision.I use alphanumeric symbols as the building blocks of my artwork, recognizing the impact of human interaction on our psyche and our spirits. I skillfully weave together these symbols to create a powerful visual language that speaks to the innermost depths of the human experience.As an artist, I strive to create works that not only engage the viewer aesthetically but also provoke thought and introspection. Through my art, I aim to ignite important conversations about the human experience and the transformative power of art. It is my hope that my work inspires others to explore the deeper meanings behind their own experiences and to find beauty in the world around them.
