About me
Hello, I am an Italian designer born in Argentina to Syro-Lebanese parents. I have worked on a number of personal and independent editorial projects, having a chance to get more familiar with the medium. I have a true passion for publishing and most things made of paper, and real obsession for cinema and video art. I am a good and hard worker, with my own views and ideas but also open to confrontation. I enjoy group work but am able to manage solo projects as well. What can I say, I am almost perfect.
Projects
  • Mukbang
    MukbangMukbang it’s a book with pictures of some of the things I ate during the month of July and how I ate them. This might be the final point of my mental health downhill spiral.
  • Vedo Tutto Vedo Niente
    Vedo Tutto Vedo NienteVedo tutto, vedo niente is a book made to host some pictures I took during three years with analogic and disposable cameras all over the world: from Jerusalem to Rome, from London to Buenos Aires.
  • is this the end.
    is this the end.is this the end. is my Final Major Project for the MA in Design for Art Direction at LCC. The project is at its core a paranoid and disillusioned meditation on a possible Apocalypse, made as a publication: a compendium of 2020’s most bizarre events and an analysis of the current socio-political situation through the eyes of authors Aldous Huxley and Mark Fisher. Plus some of my personal ruminations.
