The creative process is very intimate. When I am at work, a great swirl of emotions pervade me: excitement, exhilaration, curiosity, together with a feeling of liberation and a gentle, silent, but inexorable force. I am constantly exploring new techniques and solutions. I love to test and experiment, associate radically different materials and forms, create contrasts that give life and new harmonies, and new conceptual, emotional, and sensory spaces. I use a variety of materials for this: pure metals and alloys, casting scraps from Murano, the spontaneous gifts of Mother Earth, valuable salvaged materials, the wood and seaweed pushed onto the beach by the waves of the sea, fragments of bottles abandoned on the beach (!!),leaves fallen from trees, semi-precious stones, heart, and thoughts…many, so many…
Each object is a unique piece, an encounter between different stories, a vibrant snapshot, imperfect and therefore dynamic, directed toward new adventures, from my hands to the life of another: a moment that is extremely important to me, filled with emotion.
The soul of my projects is aesthetically innovative and socially relevant artwork.
I want my works not only to heighten the uniqueness of those who wear them, but to foster encounters, dialogue, and above all, to raise awareness of values such as ecological responsibility, empathy, and compassion. Looking with new eyes at nature, animals, and people is the first step toward actively contributing to a better world.
The Identitanium brand fully represents my vision of the world and interactions with other inhabitants of the planet: each individual – regardless of species – is a unique and unrepeatable identity, and therefore priceless.
As I love to point out, the most precious gem you can wear is your uniqueness. Remember to let it shine. Always.
