An artist great interest, able to speak in the language of the eternal archetypes.

HOT STONES
YEAR 2011.
The stones are born on these first steps, among which we have hidden protected sheltered.
Stones for the first shelter for the first hut, stones for the first sound of the first weapons
Stones do not forget to report losses for the first graves.
Stones stones to adorn the neck in the sun to heat the stones on which lay the sea to hunt for food
Stones to play ... circular stones to travel
the first stone and stone wheel ... the first signs to venerate stones
writing ... stones still together.
stones, sand and stones of our houses where we live ... stones are stone monuments
skyscrapers and roads where lies the bed to dream where we walk to meet
foundation stones resistant to wind and stone bracelets
where the river flows and where the sky rests. Fire stones stones stones to indicate
to carve stone for the shadow and challenge for throwing stones.
Along with a group of people each from a different culture
from a place other than their own world, I picked up signs and symbols
Paths always with the tip of the stones on the skin or scratched
and impressed other soft materials that welcome . From stones UNITED
those signs have emerged
and reflected back on the magic stones.
photograph reproduced on the memory works
acrylic ink photo paper so that ... continuous contact
persevere without unnecessary boundaries of race and racism
From hot stone to the one that I recognize human art.

How do these works huge, bright and shiny, full of suggestions from different backgrounds?
Vivo come posso, ma in quel che posso non sopporto come facciamo il mondo. Non sopporto come scivolano le colpe sulle diverse generazioni passandole come nulla fosse a quelle successive con tutte le somme. La prima riflessione mi spinge poi a scarabocchiare nel tentativo di prendere appunti - quando vedo queste mostruosita' quotidiane.
Quali mostruosita’ ?
Il genocidio africano, ad esempio, di cui nessuno parla e pochi dicono che e' colpa dei francesi e degli americani, della Germania e del Belgio, colpa degli occidentali tanto che il comandante Dallaire, dei Caschi Blu in Rwanda, chiedeva con insistenza aiuto e veniva metodicamente ignorato e boicottato. Oppure l'innocenza , anche degli adulti, calpestata, Civil Rights forgotten, when I see that no one is ashamed of what happened at the Genoa G8 in 2001 and still today is said to be 'guilty of Carlo Giuliani, and we do not know who shot really, who killed him.
There are so many other massacres hidden ...
Cosi 'like you do not know who deleted Pasolini, nothing about Falcone and Borsellino, nothing on the level of communication gelliana, on IOR, on Calvi, sull'Ambrosiano. Not only lack the full names of the culprits, the principals, there is no truth ', we are a company' of current and historical lies, where people continue to organize covert.
All of this leads to the creation of your painting projects? Other
in the world are being raped daily by the beatings, both physically and not culture. For those of previous generations and those to come later and I tell myself every day: "E 'EVEN MY FAULT! "And then began to draw every day all day. Not 'cause I be able to do so, or because' painting is the solution to all these horrors, and 'the study for many years and I have known and I love the painting and not' a solution, can 'become counsel.
Individual murals, urban graffiti, as well as primitive art, action painting. All this time the vitality that characterizes you. Tell us how this set of images comes to light, what is the procedure, both physical and mental, that led you to this?
I spent long periods to draw only corrupt and fucked from the mechanism of the image and 'useless to repeat when you're good at it. Stop objectivity 'and' silly over that and 'impossible to reproduce, thus useless. In a world without human emotion I do not wonder that it is difficult to understand abstract art. I say abstract to say the absence of a strict not to refer to a painting movement. for me the clouds are clouds there I never see any form if not the beauty of wind that passes through the stretching and spreading the blue that contrasts and also tell you when it's raining day, thousands of emotions. What good is' see a horse a dog or something objective.
Pollock 'was also very important in my life' cause very close to Indian culture in his painting are the dances of the world, but especially the gestures', the first draw in the air like a shadow drawing design paths that arrive later, and in becoming, on the canvas. He also loved Mexican graffiti, as for color and passion, I love those American Keith Haring, and sensitivity to the infinite silence 'universal Vasco Bendini and gestures' commitment and Emilio Vedova.
What historical moment living art?
We are in a static period, where instead of looking ahead and find solutions and what we represent 'the past, blocked the video art for years. the art and 'stop everything' fixed in a single frame, except for a few individual exceptions, they lack the avant-garde, and intelligent people who propose to continue to run the film through other stories in the next frames. When there 'this period of stasis expect the worst.
And your research?
This research 'work, a project development for years. Arises from a reflection on the signs ancestral signs used by all nations. Different people and thousands and thousands of miles away from each other, lived in different times and different historical periods, but all used the same De-signs to communicate.
The spiral wave, X, square, circle, dots and more. With these few signs, will be a hundred in all, have created an incredible world.
imagine writing the numbers, but even before the fantasy that they failed to develop with few resources to turn the whole, through the sign, including speech and memory. If you look at Aboriginal designs, the Mayans, American Indians, Egyptians, through these signs could make a real work of incredible visual impact and historic. Perhaps
were signs that had a meaning for all, being in and with nature, to merge with it, respect it, be part of it, I think that this in several places in the world and different peoples took place the same gestures and similar meanings.
As these signs disappear from our society '?
are lost with the evolution, or if you want to evolve into something complex.
I mean 'you learn to draw, the prospect ... etc.?
The Mayans as the Egyptians used gII same signs that I listed first, and perhaps disappear when the man controlling nature, what has 'that was first of all, then creates his companies' rules with the approval and expansion. Recover those signs and 'also a warning to understanding what' we have lost and how little time we have, perhaps no more ', and let him live again.
If nobody talks about the African genocide, imagine if we say that in the sea and 'missing 50 percent of the fauna. When you push to kill the Africa that I consider the belly of the world and killing the sea, the placenta of life, I can not think of what can 'stay in today and logical thing to other generations.
How do you think the use of a medium such as computer, which allows you to store an infinite amount of images, in time to rework several times but has the later versions, which influences the creation of ' work? In other words, if you had made painting, just as you have done for years, the same images, using the same signs, what would have been substantially different, in addition to the brilliance of the colors?
The brilliance of the colors come later, when I realize the work that I decided to use paper, use even the dull and lackluster. but the question of the computer is not 'just that I can store work and work later, until' I do not decide that it is finished.
The computer has allowed me to combine three arts which I have always dedicated, photography, painting, computer graphics, without the latter instrument would have been difficult to reach these emotional effects technicians and then, even though previously I had tried through the photocopier, for get something like that. The computer then
becomes a creative tool, forfeit the macro, then elaborate on which the design, and allows me to use colors that however endless rework later with acrylics. in fact I've never been afraid of the technical means, I just rework them into creative, if you agree passively become monsters in the service of power and you're finished. All this makes the work so 'these policies, from the innovative technique.
Explain the basic steps that lead to the creation of works and articulated so special, tell us about the time it takes to complete.
We start from the photograph. click and impression images, which take a particular. The press and ' A3 paper and join them to achieve large prints, having split the work on the computer in small rectangles. So check 'all the colors of each sheet, and bringing them together will form the work in total. Then speaking with the color, let the grainy image on the spots where I think it is appropriate, adding or removing color tones, there ', the stage of painting. Then decide how to cover the surface. Photo cards are delicate and must be protected. It takes a couple of weeks to complete the work, while I do not know how much time I spend to create it inside your computer, sometimes months, sometimes come in one day in one hour, others remain, "sleeping" while waiting that I wake up to the completion thereof.
The computer has allowed you to work in extremely difficult conditions, reacting to the lack of physical space and tranquility with creativity, indeed, taking you to renew your artistic language. What difficulties have you encountered in order to materialize what comes on a screen?
If you do not have spaces and colors available, always open on a table ready to welcome huge, and 'how to remove the hammer to the worker, the pen to the writer, you have to reinvent it-or-die. Yet as we speak there 'that everyday people do not see the sky but remains free. Other
can not do so peaceful why 'need to think about eat to leave, get on a raft without knowing how to swim. How can you expect that sooner or later do not commit some act of madness? how can you expect assaporino the emotions of the sea with peace '?
I lived in a room where every day I saw the sky, there would never put a tent in front of the window, it was so beautiful 'every day I had several tents. Munari had worked on small spaces to adapt to creativity ', but when the small spaces are required there' nothing that takes the madness that these triggers. The computer has allowed me to fit these contrasting pieces, when I had no spaces and create a mosaic theory and now, slowly takes shape.
policy, technical, research, and all 'significant and innovative in your work, even in dealing with disturbing themes of the world, they remain bright, colorful,' cause?
In the West we eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the rest of the world and not a bowl of rice a day, we control the free time because they do not have 'driven to eat, we are at the point where many people speak just for one reason or another. The painting was once the complaint because 'he told the company', think of Guernica German Expressionism, think of Van Gogh and many others here tell and bring the change was the fundamental concept of painting, any painting created to suggest positively to the world . The
bright colors are a council, are vital '. Perhaps 'This is the strength that shines in the works, even the most' obscure offer a solution, and live to live.
