2024

100x100cm | £2,750

100% waste: 1000+ fruit nets collected over 6 years.

A healthy coral reef made with its nemesis. Following my residency at ISMAR in Venice and the current subject of my current residency with IOAEA, continuing my dialogue on the state of our seas and the need to protect this ecosystem, which is core to our survival.

Experimenting on ways to make humans empathise with a habitat we are not meant for by expressing its beauty and perfection, to which we are instinctively drawn. Using familiar containers of daily food to stimulate empathy.

Trying different textures to recreate both the grains of the seabed and the complexity of water and its many components, starting with the easiest and most immediate to understand for us such as air bubbles, as a sign of human presence.

2018-2024

100x100cm | £2,750

100% waste: discarded Actimel bottles, leftover buttons, bits, bobs, fruit nets, ringpulls, old business cards and a whole lot of stitching, crocheting and loving on a few layers.

Half of the original 1x2m eco-experimental piece made in 2018, which could be rolled onto itself and easily carried under one arm. This eco-installation, made rollable with rigid materials originally as a sample for a NYC gallery, was one of those pieces never quite finished, never quite right. Now halved, reworked, patched up and installed onto leftover board pieces and just as it was meant to be.

Representing nature in its nemesis, an abundance of diversity in shapes and colours which will forever remind us of how Summer used to be before plastic, pollution and deforestation caused these drastic changes we are already beginning to see, made with the very own material which caused them.

2024

45x45cm | £850

100% waste, roughly 180 plastic medicine vials.

Extremely unlikely is bound to become increasingly likely, as we are facing a new reality, shape-shifting at increasing speed. Like crocodiles in proximity of coral reefs, a reality which is becoming increasingly common as a phenomenon of climate change.

Continuing the series on our marine eco-system, so closely linked to the rest of our planet, and so essential to our survival. Legacy of my remarkable residency at the Institute of Marine Sciences in Venice.

When they see her for the future bride of the prince, and no longer as a servant. And the Impostor Syndrome she probably feels thereon - the same I sometimes, inevitably, feel with my work.

2018

25x43cm | £750

100% 'trashure': a year worth's supply of the same medicine vial, fruit nets and used plastic cutlery.

Not only I wonder how long humans will be able to eat other creatures sustainably, but also how long before plastic replaces organic material substantially - either through conscious human intervention or through hormonal assimilation...

2017

36x45cm | £1200

Used Actimel bottles, and leftover buttons on wooden board.

An artificial beehive: the more we advance in every field, the more we imitate Nature’s perfection…but rather that recreating it artificially, should we not safeguard the real thing instead?

2017

33.5 x 50cm | £1250 | SOLD

100% waste: used Actimel bottles and glass from a broken hospital window on wooden board.

It is fascinating to see how, the more we advance in every field, the more we imitate Nature’s perfection…but rather that recreating it artificially, should we not safeguard the real thing instead?

100% waste: used newspapers and magazines (leftovers from a previous commission). To display any direction you wish - no up, no down, just full of possibilities.

This is a piece of personal therapy to regain self-confidence, and a cry to all sister souls out there to persevere in the belief that it is beyond the red tape of conventional structures that true expression and meaningful evolution bleed out and expand. Personally I might need a few more therapy sessions (the tear runs deep 😂) but I still believe! Can you relate?!?

100% waste: roughly 400 screw caps and just as many ring pulls.

Delicate and aromatic, with red fruit aromas of cherry, strawberry, raspberry and tomato, and a savoury character of dried herbs, fresh bell pepper, roasted red pepper, fresh mint and pencil shavings. And the taste of home for me.

Latest gossip from the vineyards is that Cabernet Franc is no longer in fashion. Shame – although it does not stop me from considering it my favourite red varietal wine! Even more so as a vegan, whereby I now find it a great companion for nearly all dishes.

Powerful and bold, with black fruit notes of black cherry, vegetal notes of green pepper, and spice notes of vanilla from oak ageing.

One in particular is still floating in my memory, as I recall thinking it was just 'perfect'. From Sicily, which I thought was quite unexpected for this variety!

For all wildlife, both plants and animals. 20% of land on Earth is used to raise sentient creatures for slaughter.

For the farmed creatures. They feel, they think, they love and we slaughter them for a few seconds of pleasure. Meat, milk, eggs: all contributing equally.

For our children. Because we are literally, systematically killing their future.

For us. To be better, kinder, and respect the beautiful planet we inhabit. And live healthier and longer. To save lives, and save Life.

270 x 110cm or 150 x 210cm | £6000

100% waste: used hairdresser's foils, papers and magazines (leftovers from a commission), 85 screw caps and some fabric leftovers.

This is my 'kindest' piece so far, yet most likely the most controversial. Chances are that over 90% of you will not like its message: because in this case LOVe might be 100% rubbish, but it is also 100% Vegan.

For I love my children, and I want them to have a future. Roughly a third of carbon emissions can be cut down by going Ve.

For in my books love is kind, and cannot be cruelty towards any sentient being. And going Ve is the only way.

For the world belongs to all, and it is my duty to be my best self toward it. And...yes. Ve

If you are kind, you choose Vegan... for there is no alternative.

100% waste: used hairdresser’s foils, newspapers, and leftover fabric.

Just like the vibrant Art Deco font it is made in, this piece is full of potential, possibilities, and on the verge of new greatness. Watch us bring humanity to new heights, in the whirlwind of a love revolution for the survival of all creatures.

Such a kind piece, yet so controversial! Why...?

Did you know we could save one third of carbon emissions just by being kind and going Vegan? If we were looking for a magic button to press to slow down climate change, this is it!

Do you actually share the common bias that kindness for all creatures, for our children, for the planet - and for our own health! - is extreme? Or rather, do you agree that extreme is unnecessarily killing 900,000 cows, 1.4 million goats, 1.7 million sheep, 3.8 million pigs, 12 million ducks, 202 million chickens and hundreds of millions of fish every day, whilst dooming our children to extinction, and all for the sake of our tastebuds?

277 x 92cm | £4800

100% waste: thousands of crown caps, hundreds of corks and leftover wall paint.

Part of my vegan series, it should probably be read “LIVee”.

In Playbill font, this quartet speaks of the Far West, easy bullets, numbing whiskey and toiled wood, where those few precious bricks were reserved for the town cell. Yet this mors tua, vita mea vibe here evolves into the Vegan symbol, pointing to exactly the opposite philosophy. For I like to believe that we have indeed come this far, where we finally understand that our individual survival is strictly connected to and dependent upon the survival of all other creatures. Where diversity is not feared and suppressed, but rather welcomed and fostered. To a new perspective on the whole: vita tua, vita nostra.

100% waste: hundreds of cans and corks and leftover wall paint.

Art Nouveau to recall La Dolce Vita, un aperitivo in piazza and a pampering dinner. The ideal of a style no longer sustainable, yet still so dearly engrained in our culture.

What does it take to swap flesh for fresh, pig for a pea, and keep it going rather than end it in flames and floods instead?

Staged Photography (20x25).

Growing up as an atheist in a heavily permeated Catholic country such as Italy, in my early years I suffered tremendously from prejudice.

This piece is about one of the aspects I had to fight both as an atheist and as a woman: it deals with the fundamental issues of respect, nature, freedom and equality for a woman in progress.

Sexual awareness might just be one way to avoid that constructed feeling of guilt and shame for which you would invariably deserve to fall into the pit of Hell.
