L’artista, che ha avuto la sua prima mostra da Corvi-Mora nel 2004, continua la sua ricerca con una pittura tra l’astrazione e la figurazione, liquida, costruita con stratificazioni di colore quasi trasparente. I soggetti di partenza sono sempre topoi dell’esperienza di vita nella società tardo-capitalistica, filtrati attraverso generi tradizionali come la pittura di paesaggio o la natura morta e spinti verso una cifra quasi astratta.
