Born in Terlizzi, a small town in the province of Bari, I approached drawing very early.
I attend and obtain the diploma at the Liceo Artistico “G. De Nittis "in Bari where I make my first real contacts with the world of art by winning the 1st prize in the exhibition at the end of school.
In 1998 I enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice but my inner troubles and the inability to create a strong relationship with the teachers pushed me to abandon the study in the third year. In the meantime and in the following years I paint portraits, still lifes and author copies of the masters of the past on commission, refining the technique of oil painting. I exhibit on several occasions.
I soon approached contemporary art, its representatives, material painting, and my turbulence found an outlet in the expressionist gesture, in the impressionist chromatic decomposition and in Freudian philosophy.

Today I am a musician and painter, I work regularly in my studio in Verona in the continuous search for the defect. I look at autochthonous and world art with interest and in an analytical way, daily enriching my pictorial language.
