Belfagor is a hybrid of space shuttle and sarcophagus. The attempt to sculpturally capture the space around a figure, to give an outline not to matter but to nothingness. There are two versions of Belfagor. The first was hand-carved from shell limestone in 2013, while the second was computer-designed and milled from polyurethane in 2015. Although the forms are very similar, the feel is very different.

This series of works plays with modules. The basic elements are ten individual silhouettes, which can be combined like musical notes. Building on that, I created three ink drawings, each measuring 100 x 70 cm. I moved on to a series of ceramic works made of tiles and also experimented with screen printing, incorporating glitches into my designs.

Most of these works were created in Rome, a city whose powerful past never fades and which holds immense cultural and historical significance as a gateway between Europe and North Africa. Despite often cursing its immobility, I spent six years in Rome, which were crucial to my artistic and personal development.
