About this artwork
Scars are part of every life. Some remain visible on the body, while others live quietly in memory. Each one shapes the way we see the world.
The portrait of a young girl emerges through fragmented layers of color. A vivid red line crosses her face like a scar. It carries the memory of blood, pain and survival, becoming part of her identity.
Born from a deeply personal experience, this work gradually expanded into a broader reflection on the experiences… that leave lasting marks on people's lives, transforming the way they see themselves and the world. Her face gathers countless human stories into a single presence, inviting each viewer to recognize their own.
The scar preserves the memory of blood, yet it also tells the story of what continues to live. It is the place where a wound becomes memory and continues to shape the present.

« In a time when superficial glances seem incapable of perceiving the nuances of life, I try to synthesize a thousand tensions of my feelings and those of the world. »
I am an Italian contemporary painter. Born in Southern Italy, I spent years moving through structures that did not represent me — economics degree, corporate work, even politics. Always searching for myself, and for freedom. At forty, painting emerged as a necessity, the place where the search for myself became a pictorial one. My language is the pictorial pixel — fragments of color applied with a palette knife, breaking down and recomposing images. Up close, the works appear abstract. Stepping back, figures, faces, and urban landscapes reveal themselves — unfolding connections and possibilities. Exhibited nationally and internationally, my works are held in private collections in Europe and the United States, and include a cover of musician Alphonso Johnson's album.
In a time that accelerates, simplifies, divides, and flattens, my art offers a space where complexity is value, fragment possibility, and sharing completion. A space where anyone can feel welcomed for who they are.
