This artwork bursts with chaotic energy and dynamic movement, exemplifying a masterful fusion of abstract expressionism and vivid color interplay. The upper half is a vibrant storm of dark, earthy tones mingled with bright yellows, blues, and whites, creating an impression of tumultuous natural forces. The intensity of the strokes suggests a frenetic momentum, as if the colors are swirling and clashing in an untamed dance. Contrasting starkly, the lower section transitions into calmer, yet equally compelling, sweeping lines that appear to drip downward. This effect creates an impression of movement and flow, emphasizing gravity and transition. The juxtaposition of these elements invokes a visceral sense of tension between chaos and tranquility. This piece captivates through its raw energy and intricate layers, inviting viewers to explore the depths of its expressive narrative. The artist's technique showcases an ability to harmonize disorder and grace, producing a truly evocative composition.

Presentation
Graduated from the Florence Art Academy
The core of my research starts from the elaboration of my unconscious. The unconscious has always fascinated me as an unknown element, I believe it is the only thing that can be both unexplored and certain, aware that it can hide great talent and uniqueness. In the everyday we see only the tip of a large iceberg, my goal is to get to the other end and observe what may be revealed.
I believe that each of us even once has made a doodle, and not necessarily with pencil or charcoal, and it is in that moment of realization that we see all kinds of anger, joy, sadness or fear, the doodle is so simple but so personal, it helps to get rid of all thoughts, it helps to empty the head, to leave on the paper all that we are, we will come to ask ourselves, " is it art? Or therapy?"
The difference between unconscious and conscious in the doodle lies in being visually aware of the direction, pressure or aesthetic element, the best way not to condition oneself is to close one's eyes and let the body and not the hand carry us, only in this way will the doodle bring out as yet unknown particularities.
To get to the unfolding of the pure doodle, I usually use a large surface that is larger than my body and then find the center of the support; after that with the charcoal I let the body move like a rough sea, never detaching, until the charcoal wears out or breaks.
I would like to be able to connect the world like a big net, a big doodle, it can become a bond between art and non-art. The creative essence is inherent in us, regardless of what we make as well as the doodle that becomes our own unique expression of identity.
