interactive performance size: 4 x 3 meters length: 30 minutes year: 2011 This work explores the decline of the body in favour of the image which, once in contact with matter, is transformed in energy. The digital vision becomes concrete through the use of a projection and becomes master of the body/performer, violating it by its interior, and generating through it a new structure. This conflicting exchange between body and vision relentlessly ends with a deprivation of the element of ...
interactive videoinstallation size: 6 x 3,5 x 2 meters (variable) year: 2011 “Built in” is an environmental installation made by a series of box-containers which recall the typical aesthetics of urban conglomerates. Every box contains and shields a figure, a restless body in continuous movement, trapped in a claustrophobic space, limited, reduced. The work is presented as a single conglomerate, but hides in its interiors sequences which are independent from each other. The object ‘box’ has been chosen to represent ...
interactive videoinstallation size: 2 x 1,5 meters year: 2011 Deserted buildings and neglected space are now regained and the human shapes that are projected over them are acting as containers of the structure in itself, the surface is now decorated and covered by the bodies.

Depending ...
interactive videoinstallation size: 3,5 x 2,5 meters year: 2011 The work is presented as a total immersion in a dark space, in which, for instinct, the audience is led to look for light; a sort of escape that leads to vision. Inside the space there are collocated three colored neon: blue, red and green; the audience can interact with these neon by manipulating them and creating whirls of light which evoke visions and sensations. Every color has a video installation ...
interactive performance size: 3,5 x 2,5 meters length: 8 minutes year: 2010 This work has its roots in the concept of loss of identity through the transition of time. This passage is made visible to the audience through incisions, signs and images that the performer creates through his movements. The loss of identity that the artist faces shows the need of losing ourselves and finding ourselves back, to be recognized by us and by third parties. These traces are the ...
interactive videoinstallation size: 1,20 x 1 meters year: 2010 This project has as protagonist the human figure, projected in a predetermined space in which the figure adapts itself, and remains unchanged. On the support, nothing else but a canvas, the figure is projected and pulls alongside multiple other figures, thanks to the interaction of the audience.

interactive videoinstallation size: 3 x 2 meters year: 2009 The project “To be” analyzes the individual and the subjectivity to a continuous and unstable mutation. Every being, in its essence, is provided with uniqueness, with multiple and boundless personalities and undefinable shades – the individual is part of one or more collectives, otherwise conglomerates of individuals with different personalities. The subject, placed inside society, contributes in determining the various roles of other individuals, taking part in a continuous exchange. Each ...
video length: 1’43’’ year: 2008 In this work the artist composes and invades the performance space with his own rhythmic breath. Initially this action was thought as an artistic video, but sub sequentially revealed itself as a surprisingly intimate performance in which the artist wants to record his breathing, making it concrete through an informal structure; an exchange of matter that deceives the origin of the executed movements. The video highlights the high point of the performance, in which the ...
