In all honesty, my appreciation for the significance of design dates back to my six-year-old self. It was a fateful day when I accidentally burnt my hand attempting to retrieve a slice of pizza from the scalding oven. That incident served as an early lesson, revealing the importance of a systematic approach to problem-solving. Fast forward 13 years, and the reading of "Design as Art" by Bruno Munari crystallized my understanding of design as our inherent skill to navigate life's challenges, ensuring we don't suffer burns while extracting a tempting slice of pizza from the oven.
When I was sixteen, I learned that art is vital for the development of society. It’s a free weapon that can help people fight their own battles; culture, after all, is the true engine of happiness. This is why I was doing Banksy-style graffiti in my crappy town below the volcano Vesuvius. I mean, I was sixteen, but what I learned from it is what matters.
These three pivotal moments in my life have shaped the designer I am today. Brain, heart and courage, I am like a mix of all the characters in the Wizard of Oz. My aim is to tell your stories, not fabricate them.
What else? I am Italian, from the city of the three fires, born and raised close to Naples. I am also a rapper. I can cook a great sweet and sour chicken.
