Angelo
Santonicola

Born in 1980 in Pompeii, Italy, largely self-taught, starts modelling from a  very young age. His interests in anatomy and the natural world shaped his mindset and remain clearly visible throughout his artistic production. 

After studying science and maths in high school first and English literature and Anthropology later at the “Orientale” University in Naples, he decided to go back to his first field of interest and passion: sculpture.

After some time spent at the “Fine Arts Academy” in Naples he  started his career as a professional sculptor at the age of Twentyseven.

Since then he has been exhibiting in Italy and UK, as well as collaborating with other artists to help find their visual expression.

He moved to London in 2013 and since 2014 he has also been working with the modelling department of “Pangolin Editions”, the fine art foundry that helps creating the figurative work of artists from the likes of Yayoy Kusama, Sarah Lucas and Damien Hirst among others.
