I’ve always been an artist. First through music, then through visual arts. When I entered the crypto art space, I didn’t have the intention of immediately presenting my own work. In a way, I found myself in this community quite naturally. I started as a collector, observing, supporting other artists, and trying to understand the language and dynamics of this new ecosystem. Over time, I felt the need to contribute more actively. I began organizing events and exhibitions, with the aim of bringing digital art, and especially the artistic movement of this community into the physical world. In Italy, I collaborated with a collective to create exhibitions dedicated to crypto art, with the idea of building a bridge between these two spaces. After spending several years within this scene through exhibitions, encounters, artworks, conversations, and experimentation I felt a personal need emerge: to create something that could express my own experience within this world. From that need, my first collection was born. #oUtsIde//iN A body of work that reflects my journey through social media, digital culture, and the crypto art space, exploring that subtle line where we continuously find ourselves both inside and outside at the same time. The collection aims to capture moments and sensations of our experience within these digital spaces, without judgment but with attention. Today, social media are no longer just tools; they are environments where a significant part of our lives unfolds. Within these spaces, we construct versions of ourselves that constantly shift between what is authentic and what is, in some way, performed. In this context, we are constantly exposed, yet not always present. We are connected, yet often feel isolated. We are visible, but not necessarily truly seen. The flow is fast, intense, filled with stimuli, and we rarely give ourselves the time to process it in a deeply human way. How much of what we think is truly ours, and how much is shaped by the systems we move through every day? The collection exists within this subtle tension, trying to capture moments of awareness in a space that, by its very nature, never stops, while also pointing toward a different way of being present: one where visibility doesn’t come from seeking approval, but from sincerity; where being real, creating meaningful work, and building genuine connections becomes enough to generate value, and through that value, culture.
