Skin was not enough : A Journey Beyond the Surface
What began on skin evolved into something deeper.
As a tattoo artist, I spent years mastering the body as a canvas—understanding how to bring emotion, movement, and depth to life through ink. But over time, something within me longed to explore beyond the limits of the human body.
This desire sparked a shift—from skin to canvas. A transition that allowed me to expand my visual language, experiment with colors, textures, and forms with a new kind of freedom.
Yet even the canvas felt like a stepping stone. My search for something more tactile, timeless, and raw led me to an ancient material: stone.
For two years, I immersed myself in the challenge of painting on stone slabs—combining techniques from fine art, tattooing, and sculpture. Each piece became a dialogue between the primitive and the contemporary, between permanence and transformation.This intense process of research and experimentation has culminated in a new chapter of my artistic journey:
A debut collection unveiled at the Milano Design Week – Fuori Salone.
More than just a new medium, this project represents a personal and artistic evolution—a reminder that true creation begins when we dare to go beyond what we already know.
