Biography
Codice Bianco:
The white is a neutral and pure color, but also a free color. Free in the sense that allows me to add other themes, according to the work and to the exhibition, to the principal theme which is "Fix the time."
My white work allows you to feel it of any other color: as a matter of fact if I paint my work, for example, with the red color, it’s not possible for the observer to have the same feeling that he has looking to a white work, because the red has a strong image. In this way you see the color before the form. The white is a free color for me artist and for you observer.
