About His Art
Forge and tongs, anvil and hammer. These are the elements that have fascinated me since I was a child when I used to spend time in my father's workshop, an experienced blacksmith who taught me all the secrets of the trade. Little flowers, points, commas, horns, floating curves of wrought iron were the toys of my 8-year-old self, the magic of my childhood, a training that has led me today to create fields of roses that frame princely mirrors, harmonious lamps, tables, totems, and much more. I am an unusual artist who shapes iron, turning it into a sophisticated and complex work of art. Sometimes I complement my works with different materials to tell the story of nature, where we come from, the environment, and the respect we owe it. I was born in the area of the Castelli Romani park, where there is certainly no shortage of woods, flowers, and fruits, but at the same time it is rich in history and archaeology, which make me aware of the beauty of nature that becomes my muse, and of the art of my ancestors, which cannot and must not be ignored.
