This is the story of a person. An ordinary person? Perhaps not, but that’s not for me to say. I was born under the sign of a constant search for myself, driven by a continuous pull toward my true essence, toward that hidden meaning that lies deep within and challenges every certainty. For years, I have walked the path of my inner self, led by a persistent question: what does it truly mean to be oneself in a world where everything is predefined?
Since adolescence, I have felt a rebellious force within me, something different and powerful that has always drawn me in and, at the same time, frightened me. I grew up with discipline etched into my skin but also with an unsettled need to experience strong emotions, perhaps in search of what eludes me, of what was and remains unknown.
On this long journey, I have observed how many people seem content with the surface, with a daily life devoid of questions or doubts. Their indifference to inner exploration leaves me feeling detached, almost like a stranger, creating an abyss between myself and the humanity around me.
This distance becomes a sense of alienation and loneliness, as if I am living in a world that is only partially accessible to me a world where few truly ask themselves who they are. I observe the people around me and see how, regardless of their social status, they are often strangers to themselves.
They live a life that isn’t truly theirs, a sense of self closer to the animal than the human, shaped by others’ opinions, by conventions, by tastes and beliefs that are never genuinely personal.
Society has made us intelligent beings, yes, but disconnected from our true nature, unaware of our place in the universe. Animals know their role; they are part of a balance they respect without hesitation.
We, on the other hand, with our intelligence, have become blind to who we truly are. Our arrogance leads us to believe we are superior, yet most of us ignore what it means to live with full awareness. My works are born from this sense of rebellion, from the desire to explore and represent a critical awareness that escapes all imitation.
Through my art, I aim to celebrate the authentic uniqueness of the human being, far removed from the mere copy of a copy. These works are not just a reflection of me but also a mirror for those who observe them. I invite anyone who feels trapped between expectations and conventions to pause for a moment, to question, to dare to look deeper.
Real life the one that doesn’t appear on the surface lies right there, where there is the courage to challenge everything, and the beauty is that the answers are within us! This is a journey, and my works are dedicated to anyone who has the strength to question every aspect of their self in the constant search for their true SELF.
Safe travels, wanderer…
