I like to play with everyday elements creating new situations which break the usual way of seeing the familiar.

I carve on the skin, i make ephimeral interventions which I document with truthful, scientifically rigorous black and white images.

Neutral backgrounds and opposites which dance between the rejection and the laughter, between what it is seen and what it is, grabbing the minimal and closest elements.

These are broken times.

We are living a return to the intimate. From the withdrawal and the self-analysis it is attepted the restructuration of an identity hounded by the digital and accelerated society.

The body does not find its place, the digital does not fit into its material and its direct relationship with the sensations is fading.

There is the possibility of moving through virtual spaces through an adopted and idealized body.

The reflexive verbs which describe actions made on the body itself lose their quality.

It is not me anymore the one who moves his body, the one who moves.
