Is a sculptor born in Rome in 1962. His sculptures are meticulously made with thousands of tiny pieces of bubblegum pink!
This is what he says of his work:
"Synthetic fleshy pink color, the obsessive square shape of the product unwrapped and ready to be torn to pieces by the power of the tongue, all compete for the senses impact. Applying this to the power and energy of the Sculpture and its history causes a short circuit having the capacity of turning the ludic in awesome. "
He spent the last 10 years of his life in chewing gum sculpting and says he is the most versatile material used. After molding forms, add them antibiotics and formaldehyde to give a finish.
