Contemporary art critic and curator I organize exhibitions and events for private and institutional spaces, which alternate with independent projects in the perspective of an interaction between art and community-territory. The last project (2018) Border Crossing co-designed and edited for Manifesta12 Palermo, has been selected among the collateral events of the Nomade Biennial. My academic studies: literary, artistic, symbology and psychological sciences  background (together with art therapy workshops held within disadvantaged psychosocial communities) have focused my attention on the creative, relational and expressive process, between art and otherness attention on the creative, relational and expressive process.
