He is the proprietor of the firm “ASIA”.
“ ASIA” designs and produces jewellery in precious metals and accessories for
leather wear and clothing.
Much of this work the proprietor does himself.
He had started to paint as a game, as a form of concentration, and then experimenting with wood, wax, marble, clay, glass, metal, etc. discovered a creative way of working these materials.
In the various phases of experimentation, he was a student of masters of mosaic, who had, in their time, worked in this medium in an artistic way.
Here he learnt various techniques in mosaic, micromosaic, inlay work in stones and stained glass.
This led him to the rediscovery of ancient ways of working these materials that have almost become extinct.
Pushed by the desire to understand and evolve his personality, he became a part of the theatre group”LA SFINGE” of Cortona and played a part in “Oedipus Rex” by Euripides, and in the dramatisation of “Donna de Paradiso” by Iacopone da Todi.
He participated in the theatrical group of ”La rete dei sogni”, in which the participants write, interpret and design stage sets for the theatrical produtions.
Being especially sensitive to the need for aggregation in his community, he was the founder of the “Università della Formazione Permanente di Cortona”.
The teaching of drawing, sculpture, improvisation and voice to children between the ages of 6-12
at the after –school child-care center “Together for the Family” was a very constructive experience for him.
For a good balance between mind and body he thought it useful to develop body expression. After following theatrical dance courses held by Raffaella Giordano he participated in several seminars of contemporary dance among which was “Parlare! Il corpo parla”, organised by “Libera Accademia di Teatro” run by Luigi Maria Musatti.
This stimulated in him a desire to create certain situations/“circumstances “, that would allow him to present himself in performance.
He discovered with time that the various forms of expression
need to be well understood. Only by having complete mastery of these techniques
can the professionality of the performance be made evident .
He participated in seminars with the “Sosta Palmizi” dance company.
He took vocal training lessons held by Bruno de Franceschi.
He was an acting student of Paolo Terni and Marisa Fabbri.
He did theatre workshops with Luca Ronconi.
Making various short-length films he discovered cinema giving him a universal vision of what it means to transmit an emotion.
After this he made a short-length film called “Ambir di Interagir”. With this film he for the first time took on the role of a director. This brought him to a further evolution which saw him directing an advertisement spot financed by the Ministry for equal opportunities of Tuscany. The subject being the emancipation of women.
Always attracted by new concepts, maybe being Acquarius and his ascendant being also in Acquarius , already at a tender age he performed sequences of movements of which he did not consciously know the origins.
A book given to him by his intuitive sister, graduated in anthropology/Arts, made him realize that such movements seemed extrapolated from Yoga exercises.
Thus he started to learn - nurturing himself from thousands of years of history , which lay hidden or concealed beneath his own body movements.
During the following years he continued consistently but not assiduously the practise, perfecting his techniques.
He also frequented courses, seminars and full immersion, with various teachers among whom was Danny Paradise, one of the most famous Yogi alive. Time flowed on and the acquisition of techniques such as Shiatsu, Reiki, Tai Chi, Chi Gon became more than a casual event.
These philosophies led him to encounter various personalities, schools of thought and new concepts, making him constantly expand his horizons.

There are things in the life of an individual which transcend his every control. Perhaps for genetic reasons, perhaps for a spark flung by something unknown, which stirred my interest in my childhood
I discovered Art.
ART:- visual expression of a fantastic world; representations of emotions which explode, sometimes timidly, sometimes with force.
The work of art is, therefor, a creative realisation with which an individual materialises images, perhaps irrational , from his own fantasy.
It was not easy for me to clarify what it was that thrust me into being that which I am; now I know that it is passion which was the soul of my metamorphosis; the same passion which transcends my every control.
