I am a British-Italian visual artist with a professional background in illustration, film & theater design, conceptual design, and photography.
For over 30 years, painting has been my primary foundation of creativity. The process, often all-consuming, became a way to dissolve the box—a contrast to my years in commercial practice and a peaceful space for exploration. It now stands at the center of my daily life, a continual dialogue between intuition and form. Each painting is both a meditation and a record of process; an ongoing search for harmony between chaos and clarity.
The Gozo Landscape collection focuses on Malta's sister island. I have always drawn inspiration from the dramatic geology, extreme environmental contrasts and colours. With a rich tapestry of history, maritime industies and growing tourism; these works attempt to navigate the growing tensions between traditional nostalgic views and the unrelenting urban development.
