The artist was born in Florence where she lives and works and this has strongly influenced her creations, having studied at the Academy of Fine Arts and living in a Renaissance city filled with details

Through photography, painting and installation, she portrays performances that she sets up as a stage theatre. Her narration follows a fine thread, the hidden or implicit meaning that the viewer can discover between the semantics of her images, an art that sometimes requires a reading of the symbols, gestures and expressions of female faces and bodies, which dwell in landscapes that she describes as modern 'capricious'

Suspension in the water

Stones that "float" in aseptic or well-structured landscapes, silent and evocative, offering an effort of empathetic reflection. She works with various galleries in Italy and abroad, has exhibited at the 54th Venice Biennale and in various solo shows, fairs and group exhibitions
