Alessandro Roma

(Milan, Italy, 1977)

Alessandro Roma (Milan, Italy, 1977) lives and works in Faenza and London. He graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan. His work is shaped by a predominantly pictorial approach that comes out of his academic training and his early work. Roma has recently explored a variety of techniques, including casting, printing on fabric, ceramics, and collage. This has led to a completely new repertoire of interior landscapes, the fruit of both real-life experiences and literary sources, rendering his imagination accessible and tangible to the viewers.
