Sculptures
Each of my paper sculptures is a vessel of myth and memory, shaped from humble materials such as recycled paper, flowers, or tree remnants. I seek to give life to timeless archetypes — symbols of transformation, resistance, and the sacred. Working with cartapesta/papier-mâché is, for me, not only a creative and ecological act, but also a way to reconnect with my Venetian roots. I breathe new life into discarded paper, fallen leaves, twigs, and other organic fragments, a gesture of reverence for the Earth and Her stories.
Minotaur
With a body of paper and a defiant gaze,
born in silence, from scraps and remnants of old drawings,
its horns, woven from a palm frond found on a distracted walk,
carry the echo of the sierra and the sea.
A guardian of inner corridors, still searching for the way out of its own labyrinth.
Pachamama
A papier mâché woman’s head—an emblem of memory, quiet strength, and wisdom.
Made from recycled paper and fragments of nature, she holds the spirit of Mother Earth—bearing stories of loss, renewal, and sacred transformation.
Fragile yet enduring, she reminds us that what’s discarded carries deep wisdom.
A delicate kintsugi, mending the broken with silent art.
The Holy Grail
A pedestal bowl, part offering, part altar.
Crafted from recycled paper.
A fragile vessel that honors quiet rituals and hidden wonders.
Born from nature’s remnants, it holds the essence of earth’s silent rituals.
The Enchanted Forest
This bowl holds more than form—
it's made of recycled paper, branches, leaves, and flowers gathered on quiet walks.
A fragile cradle shaped by nature and memory,
where papier mâché holds a silent conversation.
Sara-la-Kali
A blue head in papier mâché, embodying Sara-la-Kali, the gypsy saint, guardian of voyagers and wayfarers, sea-born goddess of nomadic souls.
She is both Madonna and myth, protector of wanderers and keeper of their memories.
Crafted from recycled paper—fragile yet sacred, ephemeral yet enduring—like the journeys of those who roam.
The Ark of the Wayfarers
Moved by the courage, losses, and hopes of migrants, this papier-mâché boat stands as a quiet tribute.
Fragile as paper, yet brimming with resilience, crafted from recycled materials—
a testament to art’s power to renew and give life anew.
Fragmenta Terrae
This bowl embraces the beauty of imperfection inspired by kintsugi,
where brokenness becomes a symbol of healing and strength.
Made from recycled paper with papier-mâché, it recalls terracotta’s warmth,
while its fractured edges tell stories of renewal and sustainable rebirth.
Bijoux
Unique handcrafted jewelry made from humble, recycled materials (newspapers, toilet rolls, cardboard boxes, painted paper, pill cartons, etc.), organic fragments gathered during walks in nature (twigs, flowers, pine cones, leaves), and papier-mâché—or cartapesta, a technique I first learned in primary school in Italy, where we were taught to create carnival masks following the Venetian tradition.
