I love you, so I have to make you conscious of the things you didn’t see or haven’t experienced yet. G ♡ B

“The role of the artist is exactly the same as the role of the lover. If I love you, I have to make you conscious of the things you don’t see.” James Baldwin

At my age and with my experience of everyday life in Japan, I would like to appropriate James Baldwin’s beautiful words for myself.
Life as a foreign artist in Japan (ザ・外人美術家) isn’t easy. Nevertheless, I consider myself fortunate because, as a trendsetter, I have been able to influence the Japanese art world / art history and can continue to do so.
My personality radiates positive warmth, which certainly stems from my Italian roots. My nature also radiates love and understanding.
