I am an award-winning writer, researcher, and curator. I have worked in the media industry, fashion, television, art and sound curating in the UK, and in Italy.
I am the author of 'CINEMA.MODA Il cinema e la moda tra filmico e sociale' (Rome, 2011) an academic book related to the symbiotic relationship between cinema and fashion, which is used as a textbook at Bologna University and Accademia di Belle Arti di Napoli in Italy.
In 2007 I won the 'International Prize Filippo Sacchi', organised by SNGCI, at the 65th Venice Film Festival - La Biennale.
My publications have been placed in fashion and media studies. My projects have been presented on different media platforms, international symposia, on-line magazines and academic journals, including The Journal of Dress History (UK, 2019), University of Bedfordshire (UK, 2018), Goldsmiths University (UK, 2015), Goldsmiths Textile Collection & Constance Howard Gallery (UK, 2015), Spazio Zone Moda - Italian Fashion Studies (Bologna University, Italy, 2013), Radio RAI (a radio program ‘Le Consequenze della Moda’, Rome, Italy, 2013) and many more.
I have curated art and music events within multidisciplinary practices, involving installations, experimental music, electronic, noise, industrial and audio-visual live sets.
I hold a post-graduate qualification in Fashion Studies from The Departments of Design, Media and Communications at Goldsmiths University (London, UK) and a Bachelor's Honours Degree in Drama, Art, and Music Studies - Curriculum Cinema - Faculty of Letters and Philosophy from Alma Mater Studiourum, Bologna University, Italy.
The core of my interdisciplinary work focuses on the construction of contemporary subjectivity and the representation of the body in relation to cultural spaces. Regarding my specific areas of research interest, I am drawn towards subjects such as: Identity, objects, and hybrid cultures; I am interested in the way visual material informs and influences the process in which we understand and represent the present and ourselves; The themes of identity and the body within the contemporary scenario, characterised by instability and social complexity, in which identities are constructed as appearance, and individuals are free to change adopting a variety of configurations within bodily and cultural hybridizations.
Originally from Milan, I have been based in London since 2010.
