“Magic Carpets” project
EX-VOTO against war + LAND-SCAPE
EX-VOTO against war 2025
An installation that features photographs taken during food distribution in Gaza that have been reworked on the principle of forms of my sculptures entitled Ex-voto. This work questions food as a political weapon of domination, and more specifically here, food deprivation, contrasted with our global relationship to consumption, but also through a reflection on what our collective memory continues to say about our civilisations. The Ex-voto, silhouettes on Blueback paper, which refer to advertising posters, face others, made with party balloons that represent hands and arms consuming fast food while holding smartphones. These series explore gestures, collective memory, nutrition, and human evolution, where the movements of eating is an expressive language where gestures of distress are contrasted with those of passive, consumptive immobility.
LAND-SCAPE 2025
The works from the second step of my month-long artistic residency in Nantes (France) in collaboration with Magic Carpets partner from Italy and Centre Claude Cahun for photography France – On the occasion of Damien Mousseau photo exhibition about the changing rural lands.
My Edible Sculpture “Land-scape,” the result of a collaboration with “comme un île,” a consortium that combines organic horticultural production with sustainable catering, was an opportunity for reflection and sharing during the opening.
My proposal to compare the representation of landscape through photographic verticality with the horizontality of the enormous slice of edible land, along with the salt-crusted turnips resembling small spheres of earth, led to a dialogue between two works that reflect on the theme of contemporary consumption—with its well-known multiple consequences—in complete sharing and conviviality with the viewers.

Past projects
PHYSICAL CULTURE + EX-VOTO sculptures
Type: Photography / installation – sculpture
HYSICA CULTURE and EX-VOTO series reflect on food, gesture, and collective memory. The table is understood as a shared space, and the gestures are an expressive language. The work emphasises the ritual and cultural nuances of the act of eating, which transcend the physiology of the gesture and its representation. In the portraits of the multiple protagonists, neither objects nor food remain; only suspended movements and emotions remain, highlighting the universal language of the body. The series of sculptures is a study in the expression and positions of the upper and lower limbs, dedicated to grasping and supporting during a meal. The forms isolate and unite body, gesture, object, and food, creating a language of forms that represent the missing parts of the series of photographs and recall hieroglyphic metalanguages or primitive wall paintings. Meals have a ritualistic meaning, where the importance of drinking, eating, and sharing are fundamental to social relationships. Votive offerings were historically objects made of metal, wax, wood, or stone, often representing the body or parts of it, writings, or images offered for graces received. These elements acquired a religious or ritual significance, as did the representation of the human figure, deified and then standardised in our contemporary societies.
What inspires you as an artist? Life in it’s widest way – open-mindedness – curiosity – acceptance – resilience – intelligence – coherence and balance in dialogue with chaos.
What do you think is the purpose of art? Art is the expression of the deepest’s relationships and expressions with the world. In art resides a necessary alchemy and culture remains a fundamental wealth to look at and create our times.
