  • How does Biograffiti work?

    Biograffiti are bespoke illustrations drawn directly in ink, each containing a celebration of life curated by you. From the extraordinary to the everyday elements that make up each story, each Biograffiti creates a poetic and surreal world shaped around you.
  • Biograffiti and me

    After studying literature at Uni in Turin and spending a few years working in sales in the IT sector in Glasgow, at the end of 2019, favoured by the events, I decided to become a full time illustrator and focus on an artistic project which had been in my mind for some time, looking for its final shape. Biograffiti, biographical drawings: a series of bespoke drawings based on someone’s life, completely personal and at the same time linked to all the other artworks by a few recurring elements.
  • Artisanship requires time

    Each Biograffiti requires lots of hours of work. When I receive your list, I start thinking how I can represent each element, choosing between the endless possibilities which every concept carries within; I research books and websites to learn how to draw things I never drew before - the Waldorf Astoria in New York, Live Aid, the Orient Express and so on.
