Biography

Perhaps because he was born in December of 1973 in the midst of a great torment of snow, I was always fascinated by Nature, by the strength of its events and by the landscape that frames the place where I live, Sulmona, located in the heart of the Natural Parks Natural of Abruzzo.

Architect, Doctor of Research in History of Architecture and Restoration at the "G. d'Annunzio" University of Chieti. I was Professor of History of Architecture and Psychology and Symbology of Architecture at the Academy of Fine Arts of Palermo in Sicily. Professor of Architectural Design and Art History in Higher Institutes, I have always cultivated the passion for Art.

And the colors, shapes and rhythms of Nature have always been the undisputed protagonists of my works that counterpoint the artist's intervention. In this sense, the work of man has the only task of evoking, emphasizing the beauty of Nature, contrasting or following its rhythms, shapes and colors.

1990 - Winner of the First Prize in the National Painting Competition "A. Schiarini "- Anversa degli Abruzzi (AQ) - Italy.

2010 - Participates in the collective exhibition of "Common Places", promoted by the Association "Culturalmente" of Sulmona at the "Ocriticum" Documentation Center of Cansano (AQ), exhibiting ten watercolors.
