Nailshading
Nailshading is the first technique I developed in 2012 because I wanted to express myself with "my art". The goal was to go beyond the two dimensions imposed in photography and painting that we usually see in art galleries. These painting-sculptures are made up of thousands of nails and shadows, they have a led spotlight that makes the drawing appear. There is a magical side to working on something impalpable: thanks to this technique we can say that "I paint with shadow"
“The prettiest things in the world are but shadows” Charles Dickens
