Io Levante (Italian for ‘Rising Ego’) is a series of test shoots prior Nessuno and Who Are Am You I, created in England during the second national lockdown caused by Coronavirus. The series was inspired by loud inner conversations and a great sense of ambivalence amplified by the worries of a global pandemic. Exploring philosophical theories of relativism and solipsism, as well as psychological studies on the psyche, the project analyses the coexistence of different identities in one’s mind which are easily in contrast with one another. The attention floats between tangible and intangible, fragile and strong, mortal and immortal, real and surreal.

Who Are Am You I is a series of over 60 self- portraits exploring an intimate representation of the human body and its existence under the terms of a non-binary nature. The series uses fashion tools of both digital and physical distortion to provoke the viewer and suggest the plurality of the self, the fluidity between masculine and feminine, the shifting definition of reality and its elusive importance in an always more digitalised era.

- NESSUNO - NESSUNO
'NESSUNO ‑ Obsessiva Devotione' is a series of self‑portraits which explores identity in Virginia Woolf's terms of Being and Non‑being. Alternating conscious to unconscious behaviours, this is a story of obsessive devotion towards our bodies and souls, religiously performed throughout the indefinite number of actions we repeat on them every day of our lives.
