Reverie practice
If the quote that presents the work (of Bachelard’s book " Water and Dreams: An Essay on the Imagination of Matter") announces the attitude I took; the title states the intention: to reflect, as poetical exercise, on the significant capacity of a symbolic element of the territory, the water. The element of the sea builds new realities, it feeds cultures and this work as a 'practice', tries to dream a result.

Master Degree and PhD on Architecture by ETSA Madrid and Master on photography by the School of Visual Arts, New York. Besides working and teaching architecture (POLIMI) I’m an independent visual artist and digital illustrator, publishing books since 2005. I’ve been finalist among others, on Communication Arts 17 (CA) PH16 (ES), Adobe Awards ADAA15 (NY) and IPA15 (NY).
Visual art comes to me as a tool to express my concerns. My main interest is the relation that man establish with his territory, which is in continuous transformation. The territory can be abstract or physical, can be the air or the tangible world, it interest me because it constructs cultures and ways of seeing.
