Inspiration
The Marine Habitat, I conceive my works as reflections of a recreated nature, the connection between nature and culture is a constant in my work. I work across different disciplines.I began a path of alienation from the Traditional shape in order to give way to a new syncretic language by the deconstruction of the art. The work communicates two levels of interpretation: Fusion and integration of two cultures, Peru and Italy. Safeguarding seas and oceans: a Tropicalization of the Mediterranean sea is occurring.
