MY LIFE




I was born on December 3rd, 1969 in Milan.
There I obtained my diploma as goldsmith-silversmith at C.A.P.A.C. in 1985.
That same year I started working with a large goldsmith factory.
Its production was either handcrafted but also on large scale.

After eight years of, let's say, not artistic work,
I met BRUNO FREDDI - painter, sculptor and goldsmith.
He agreed in teaching me techniques, different and non traditional methods to interpret jewels.
That experience lasted about two years and convinced me to start my own workshop in 1994,
the F.P.M.

At my workshop I develop a different style from Bruno Freddi's even
if I used and improved the techniques he had taught me.
My style is more keen on a wearable and enjoyable jewel
without giving up with the design that could make my pieces unique.

Through the years, I took part in several exhibitions with my artworks
such as Agalma (Milano), Mostly Glass Art Gallery (Englewood, N.J., U.S.A.)
and I obtained some acknowledgements such as the first prize
in the Artistic Handcraft Section at
"Signs of Memory" exhibition
(June 1998).
