About

 

Devourer of paper and pencils since 1990.

During my university degree in “European and International Studies” I lived between Italy, Germany, France and Morocco. After my studies, I began working as an illustrator and collaborating with companies, museums, foundations and associations, contributing to the realization of communication, merchandising and visual identity development strategies. My works have appeared in a series of editorial publications and art projects.
