| Introduction | Born in Torino (Italy) in 1968. In 1990 I graduated from the Accademia Albertina of Fine Arts in Torino and in 2002 I got a Master in Product Design at the Domus Academy in Milan. As a visual artist I have shown my work in many national and international exhibitions in Europe and United States. In 2004 I worked as product designer for the Italian design firm Pininfarina Extra for which I designed, among many other products, the concept of the Olympic torch for the winter Olympic Games Torino 2006. I live now in Athens. Here I work as product designer and stage designer. I worked with theatres like the National theatre of Athens, the National theatre of Northern Greece, Amore (Notos) theatre, and many others. Recently I designed the new logo of the Greek National Opera. |
