“The use of neon, projectors, laser, LED lights inside metallic, plastic or vitreous structures is always addressed to the creation of light signs in the space. Signs of light similar to lightnings are a distinctive feature of my work, whose main feature has always been to open up forms to space, creating complex installations of multiple elements.

​

As a sculptor, in 1999 I started a process of dematerialization which led me to the approach of various technologies oriented to the realization of light sculptures .

​

My work on holography has started in 2006 as a result of the collaboration with Mauro Melotti. The use of holography is a natural prosecution of my work on light within contemporary art.  The use of holography helped me creating truly immersive environments in which the viewer could experience the immaterial side of reality.

​

​

Among the most significant works there is “YOU – ARE – NOT – SAFE” (2006) in which seven holograms interface on four steel bases. The installation is an advancement sequence of a bullet thorough the space growing from the left to the right.

 

Later, I created ” TEMPORARY ILLUSIONS ” (2013), a self-illuminating column for laser transmitted holograms. When the laser applied to the right corner of the inside of the column hits the film inside the plexiglass, it projects a holographic gun sight in the space between viewer and sculpture. Behind the hologram depicting the gun sight, a second hologram of a bullet is visible. Another variance of this type of work is a double euro coin represented entirely and split”.
