psychic automatism, convinced that every living being, visible or invisible, is a messenger of beauty and spirituality.
Lover of visual arts, she worked for years in the field of eco-art; she organizes art exhibitions all over the Italian area
and she is author of many publications.
The birth of little Flora made ancient loves reemerge within her: painting and illustration.
The landscape of the Modena Apennines, where she lives and that she uses for inspiration, weights on her graphic sign, sinuous and soft,
on the warm and saturated colours and on the “naturalistc” iconography, characterized by anthropomorphic animals that seem to derive from an
imaginary bestiary.

Since 2000 she works with young artists, cultural associations and art ateliers.
Since 2011 she proposes workshops about loose parts, destructured materials and euristic contexts for teachers and specialists, she prepares public
eco-outfittings, workshops about eco-art, painting and illustration.
