In my works, the imaginary world is often found in depth and light, which are symbols of life and hope.
An applied and diligent designer, the young Maurizio aged ten integrated the workshop of the Calabrian painter and sculptor set up in Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne. During the fifteen years he spent at his side, the artist taught him to master the technique of oil painting, initiating him to the work of material and light and immerged him into the world of fine arts. In 2010, Maurizio decided to detach himself from his professional career to dedicate himself more regularly to painting and as such allow him to "give his life balance".
An adept of knife-worked oil painting, Maurizio conceives his canvases as fragments of history, "that of [his] life's journey". His works are produced in a monochrome of tones, mostly from a palette of grays, occasionally enhanced by touches of bright color. Freely figurative, they depict urban scenes in which the interplay of perspective, matter and light are omnipresent. This compositional work, with its resolutely contemporary touch, gives all its strength to the works created. An enthusiast of pictorial art, his influences range from the paintings of Impressionist painters to the works of the "masters of light" who, for him, are Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (known as Caravaggio), the English painter and engraver William Turner and the contemporary artist Pierre Soulages.
