I'm an artist based in Melbourne, Australia, and I specialise in abstract and half-abstract painting with acrylics. I occasionally use oil paint and other media and I create nature photography. With all my artwork, I draw my inspiration from nature – the earth, the sea, the elements and the cosmos – as well as from my inner world. 

​

I grew up in the mountainous area of South Tyrol in Italy and I have been creating art ever since I can remember. I got introduced to abstract painting when I attended an art and design course at the School of Design in Basel, Switzerland, in 2017, and I discovered my passion for this art form. While I was at art school, I was going through a difficult time emotionally and I discovered that painting helped me process my emotions and transform them into something beautiful. That’s how I began to define my art as Transformational Art ~ it’s about turning my feelings and experiences into beautiful pieces of art.

Finding it difficult to be in a school environment, I quit the art course after the first semester and continued to paint on my own. I moved to England later in 2017 and began to establish myself as an artist there. My paintings evolved and I experimented with some new styles, such as half-abstract portraits. I found that not only making art helps me heal, but that my art can also have a healing influence on others who connect with it.

​

I moved to Australia in 2022 and I’ve been creating art here ever since. I create commissions for people who wish to have a personalised piece of transformational art, with the intention that the artwork will bring them joy and have a healing influence.
