“Hes work is an intuitive research on the symbology of images through painting and drawing; looking for the poetic and at the same time paradoxical and perturbing side of reality, it tells us stories in which the gap between objects and human beings is blurred and malleable, as well as that between image and word, taking us into an anthropomorphic dimension where objects show us human feelings and figures are pretexts to depict ideas, as in an allegory of the contemporary. His more recent research goes toward a more mysterious, evocative but at the same time carnal dimension in which the depiction of the human figure and body is more frequent; the unpredictability of the subjects in fact is a key element of his research as it constitutes the intuitive nature of his approach, aimed at constructing a personal universe in which the subjects are both the characters that inhabit it and codes to decipher it.”
