Biography

Artist and researcher born in Legnano, he lives and works between Barcelona and Bologna. The Italian born artist is a graduate textile designer with a diploma from the Artistic High School and the Milan Academy of Arts & Design. During his activities in the fashion business he started to study optics, the chemical structure of colors and neurophysiological processes in reception which formed the basis of his later career as an artist. His reseach is based on neuroaesthetic studies, a personal evolution of a technique that involves the use of special lenses, which encourages to move around in front of the work in a ritual
perceptive of temporal coincidence, and this is called Hypertrait. By designing interference patterns translated into shapes, the artist tries to involve the viewer in a kinetic relationship with the artwork, made of visual anchoring and intra-activities linked to movement.
