ABOUT THE ARTIST
Saint Denis, France - 1972,
lives and works between Rome and Venice – Italy.
The artist uses his body as an expressive performance medium, and performances are then turned into pictures and videos. The private becomes public within a poetic dimension, sometimes including a sardonic political accent. Beyond the preference for video and photography, the projects may embrace the language of drawing, sculpture and painting.
