I am Mauro Rossi, known as Maudellari.
After graduating from the Venice School of Arts in 1996, I embarked on a long career in the fashion industry, collaborating with some of the most renowned international brands. I began at the Prada Donna design office in Milan (2000), then moved on as Senior Fashion Designer for Harley Davidson and Mille Miglia (2003). In the following years, I held the role of Head Designer for prestigious names such as Roberta di Camerino (2005), Hermitage Bespoke & Luxury Creation in London (2008), Diesel Black Gold in Vicenza (2011), and Gaastra International in Amsterdam (2015).
After more than twenty years of experience, in 2024 I chose to leave the fashion industry and return to what has always been my true passion: Art.
This marked the birth of Riflessi, a project that bridges my professional background with my artistic research. Leather—a material I know deeply and have worked with for most of my career—becomes here a pigment: transformed, deconstructed, and recomposed into surfaces that evoke both the Venetian mosaic tradition and the texture of reptile skin. All works are created using only recycled leather from industrial waste, turning what was once discarded into a new artistic substance.
Each creation is the result of a dialogue between tradition and innovation, memory and metamorphosis—an attempt to communicate through a personal and distinctive language that reflects my journey and my vision of the world.
