“INFORMAL GRAFFITI is a tiny drawing on the blank surface of my artistic universe. My graffiti practice is informal because it does not follow the media, the format, the scale orthe intention of traditional graffiti art. Informal graffiti gets inspiration from Arte Povera’s philosophy, attempting to use intellectual and material fragments of the hyper consumption culture (credit cards, aluminum cans, old pieces of wood, recycled old paper,etc.)”. “My recent work is focusing on the idea of “contrast”. I am telling about different, clashing realities, visions, contradictions. Those creates sparks of energy, ideas. Those contrasts are the source for the Arts. Art becomes the tool to give interpretation to socialinjustice, racism, classism, violence, ignorance, absence of language. The viewer become the vector for a new kind of cultural debate”
“I am trying to use my art as a tool to vandalize, to spoil the fake beauty, the fake symbols, the fake principles, the fake values of contemporary society. My work should be absorbed with a mix of real life and visual poetry”
