Photosynthesis
Oil, pastels and sprays on canvas
115 X 85 X 4 cm
Photosynthesis, a term rooted in the ancient Greek philosophical concept of ‘Ph.y.sis’, exploring the enigmatic process by which plants transform sunlight into nourishment using the statuary subject of Vittoria Alata of Parco della Rimembranza in Torino as a symbolic medium; Nature, which remains the fundamental axiom underlying every theorem. Orama is a term that derives from inner-most chemistry, so I imagined it in relation to my work as seen as a whole, observed from a generic point of view and not in relation to one or more specific works of my production. Diachronic, on the other hand, indicates my research tendency, the way in which I vary my processes and intermediate links between paintings, sculptures, works on paper or videos. Being critical on my perceptions allow this diachronism method of cataloging images through time factors in order to exudes references of an indefinite series of psychic conditions I experience since I was a kid, similar to what connects vegetables, Sun and vital energy.

"La profetessa di Delfi e le sacerdotesse di Dodona, in istato di delirio, resero molti e segnalati servigi, sia pubblici che privati, alla Grecia; mentre erano in sè, pochi e nessuno. E taccio della Sibilla e di quanti altri servendosi di un'arte divinatoria d'ispirazione divina come l'amore, con le loro predizioni segnarono a molti la via da seguire; perchè allungherei, per dir poi cose che tutti sanno. Questo tuttavia merita d'esser attestato, che anche quegli antichi che dettero i nomi alle cose, non ritennero la follia nè un disonore nè un'onta, perchè non avrebbero derivato da questa parola il nome di quell'arte bellissima, per la quale si discerne il futuro che i moderni, inserendovi per ignoranza un t, chiamano mantica."

Ftéri - Φτέρη
Mixedmedia on canvas

"Inspired by the greek word for fern, Ftèri - Φτέρη transforms a familiar plant into an anthropomorfic presence. Layers of gestures, texture and organic forms blur the boundary between Nature and the human figure, inviting multiple readings. The work also echoes the athmosphere of Ftèri beach on the Greek Island of Kefalonia, a place the artist associates with Plato's Allegory of the Cave. Rather than offering a fixed narrative, the composition encourages us to look beyond appearances and embrace transformation."

Tessera, 1260 a.C.
Mixedmedia on canvas
150 X 120 X 4 cm
Hieroglyph” derives from the Greek hieroglyphikós, a word that in Italian can be translated as “Sacred Words” or “Words of God”: from ἱερός (hieròs), meaning “sacred,” and the verb γλύφω (glýphō). I split the word into Gero and Glifo, not thinking of its direct Greek roots but as an ancient word, now, in my Italian language. “Gero” is embedded in word gerundio (gerund), a verb tense that perfectly mirrors, in Italian grammar, the function of a glyph.

In the creation of the first graphic signs called 'proto-glyphs' of various archaic cultures such as the Egyptian, Chinese, and Minoan (around 4500 - 1600 BC) ancient scribes captured, composed, and intertwined first signs as linked to internal visions of external approximations, adopting them to alphabetize the experience of reality, which, fused with time, determines the perception of the spatial dimension too. Since reading and writing date back only a few thousand years, while those brain regions are millions of years old, we can assume that they originally had the function of establishing generic geometric references, as for the movement of birds concerning the stars, and perhaps, the spatial and architectural perception of the human being.

Apollo & Dafne // Frἦ
Mixedmedia on canvas
150 X 120 X 4 cm
Eros forged two magic arrows, one of gold and one of lead. The golden one would make anyone who touched it fall in love, while the lead one would make anyone who touched it, completely immune to love. Eros notices that Apollo is observing this woodland nymph, named Daphne, so he puts the golden arrow in Apollo's quiver and he gets injured during a hunting trip and shoots the lead one at Daphne. Apollo loses his head for Daphne, but she runs away in terror from the most beautiful of the gods, until, exhausted, she calls upon Zeus, who assists her and transforms her into a laurel tree, which from that moment becomes the symbol of Apollo and the dead, as well as of victorious all Olympic athletes. Laurel, in Greek, until nowadays is called ( δάφνη ) Daphnì for this reason.

E se tutti gli elementi si combinassero senza più separarsi, ecco, in un baleno si concreta la teoria di Anassagora: in blocco tutti gli elementi.
If falling asleep existed, but awakening, which arises from the state of sleep, were not correspondingly given, you would readily appreciate that, in the end, the world would reveal Endymion to be a triviality.

Curated by Master Ruha Gallery
N. 18, Rudong Road, Shinan District, Qingdao City, Shandong - Beijing, Qingdao, China
This work is a composite symbol built upon layered mediums, weaving together ancient and contemporary influences. At its core, it represents the union of Upper and Lower Egypt, depicted through adapted hieroglyphs inspired by the Sema-Tawy motif, a symbol of unity featuring the intertwined lotus flower (representing Upper Egypt) and papyrus (symbolizing Lower Egypt). These botanical elements are reimagined as dynamic, flowing forms that evoke both harmony and transformation. Adding a playful yet profound layer of meaning, the ‘X Cape’ within the piece draws inspiration from the iconic opening mission of Crash Bandicoot 1, a vintage console game where the protagonist lands on a tropical isle.

Wild Protector Mehen
Mixedmedia on paper
50 X 70 X 4 cm
The earliest known references to Mehen, the ancient Egyptian protective deity, appear in the *Coffin Texts*. Mehen is depicted as a serpent who coils around the sun god Ra during his perilous journey through the night, particularly as described in the Amduat (the ancient Egyptian funerary text). This protective act mirrors the symbolism of the **Ouroboros**, the serpent that encircles and sustains the world. Mehen’s coils serve as a shield, safeguarding Ra from the dangers of the Duat (the underworld) and ensuring his rebirth at dawn.

Flowing of blood through lotus flowers symbolizes life, continuity, and the sacred exchange between humanity and the divine. In ancient Greek and Roman cultures, the vase was a sacred liturgical element known as rhyton, a perforated vessel used in ceremonial libations. Originating in ancient Persia, where they were called takūk, (Plurals: rhytà) and became symbols of cultural exchange after the Greek victory over the Persians in 479 BC. Greek artists, inspired by these luxurious objects, began crafting their own interpretations, blending artistry with ritual. The word rhyton is thought to derive from the Greek rhein, meaning ‘to flow,’ which traces back to the Indo-European root sreu-, also meaning ‘flow.’

Orama - ὅραμα
Mixedmedia on paper
19 X 12 X 1.5 inch
A green growth emerges against an ocher backdrop, merging the divine figure that humanity seeks in its relationship with nature. *Orama*, derived from the Greek word for ‘vision’, reflects the intimate connection between the observer and the natural world. Like the dynamic between two lovers, this vision of nature becomes a mirror, revealing the spiritual elements that animate my gestures and creative impulses. The process begins with slow, deliberate drawing and cutting, followed by swift compositional decisions after scanning drafts and sketches. The result is a fusion of statuary icons and vegetal patterns, a mental exploration of the ancient relationship between humans and their natural environments. Through art and the depiction of nature, this work delves into the hidden aesthetic sublimation that has shaped our understanding of the world for centuries.

"Pramantha è un termine Sanscrito che viene identificato come la parola da cui deriva il nome del dio Greco 'Prometeo.' Il punto chiave del mito racconta che il dio rubò il fuoco a Zeus e lo donò agli uomini, subendo una punizione indicibile. Questo lavoro re-interpreta questo aspetto dell'antico mito identificando la figura di Prometeo come il fuoco stesso e non contenuto in un oggetto esterno. I pattern naturali e il soggetto sono stati fotografati al Castello di Racconigi, la composizione non include un soggetto specifico proprio perchè il fuoco non è rappresentabile in un contesto naturale, se non come unione di ogni elemento vegetale."

“This sculpture identifies the natural element Fire. I talk a lot about resonance in art, but resonance is really just a dynamic of life in general. In a world of billions of people, countless messaging, and a plethora of decisions going on within us and around us in a given moment, both conscious and unconscious, knowing how to register what resonance feels like is important. Connecting with art fosters this experience. Feeling the intention imbued in a piece by its creator is practice for feeling the intention imbued in life by THE creator – whoever or whatever that is. It’s the subtle connections we make from our past that we bring to the present that give it meaning."

This sacred spectacle involved performers vaulting over charging bulls, symbolizing a fusion of human skill, divine favor, and cosmic symbolism.No written records explain taurocatapsia’s rules or spiritual meaning, leaving its true purpose shrouded in the aura of Bronze Age Crete and at the same time, at the end of this performance, the Bull was set free in nature and not suppressed.
