Verbo
Italy Bergamo
Italy, Bergamo
Born in Italy in 1977, he started to write since the early 90s.
Making a name for himself in the underground European scene through train cars and unforgettable self made fanzines of that era, his unique style will influence several people.
At the same time the passion for computer graphics, animation and electronic experimentation will lead him to become an established VJ, also because of his involvement in FLxER project, a software for live performance but also a file sharing video community.
Multiple techniques of street art and of visual electronic arts interpenetrate in his performative works, being him the first to experiment projects of urban video-raids and of graffiti video mapping in the half of 2000.
In 2004 he starts to work on a project entirely dedicated to the celebration of the study of the lettering, derived from the school of style writing that he started following since the beginning. The style that crosses the urban scenario is summarized in a serie of works of spray on recycled typographic plates.
The plates represent the social insight, the city, upon which one alphabetical letter or more get represented according to the related subjects, or rather the artist sign distinguished from the contemporary. His pictorial shapes are veritable armors that protect the souls of the letters in the style war saga.
He had several expositions, publications and collaborations with big international brands.
