THE STATEMENT OF MY HEART

Wish for infinity / Over the horizon, the saltiest waters / I float upside-down. Where has gravity gone? / Can you see it? No. Can you hear it? Yes! / I enjoy folding Maya's Veil into the shape of a lotus flower / Lotus is my music, its leaves are my cheeks / Roots and mycelium are the neurons of trees / Crunch... crunch...roar, moan. Is it my tired heart or the child playing above? / I am a child: I am excited and sad / When sand reverts time, rhythm is found / Lost and found is the signal from the ground / No beat but I heat when I hit the lips of the voice that I miss / Ancestors and mentors, let's go for a picnic / The river runs wild, it is made of lava Polifemo's eye / Run in the street with its noises inside / Wild is the music of the body and mind / I tied a thunder to a string and shook it all night / Oh Tesla, could you please inspire my mind? / Cybernetics and kinetics: the mind of the sea / The bridge is the neck of Modigliani's princess / Please move my dream right in the middle of that pyramid / After 7920 miles the serpent eats itself: welcome to new life my dear universe! / Did you think the same thing? Is it telepathy? / Ecstasy in the rule of the shell / A home of sounds is my paradise on Earth / Senti, Ri-Senti, Ri-Suona.


THE STATEMENT OF MY ART

My practice moves between art, architecture and scientific research, and is centred on a fas- cination for the invisible—especially sound and light as physical forces that shape reality beyond ordinary perception. Rooted in a continuous mediation between scientific inquiry and artistic experimentation, theory and material investigation, my work draws on neuroscience, psychoacoustics, lighting design, environmental psychology and ecology to explore how bodies interact with their environments at sensory, spatial and neurophysiological levels. I explore resonance, interference and heightened perception as conditions emerging from the interaction between matter, energy and living systems, investigating how these processes can stimulate attention and embodied awareness. Working across multiple formats—artistic installations, spatial pavilions, architecture, sound- based environments, visual artworks, performative works and collaborative research experiments—my practice seeks to create moments in which perception is reorganised through direct engagement with physical and poetic processes, fostering wonder and a renewed sensitivity and connectedness to the world.
