I am an italian artist, designer and researcher based in London, UK.
My work has been exhibited internationally and has won several design awards.
My expertise is in the use of innovative elements such as Lighting for the design of Wearables.
I am an Associate Lecturer at the School of Art, Architecture and Design at London Metropolitan University
and a former Central Saint Martins graduate.
I have a PhD in design methodology for the development of Grounded Visual Analysis (GVA),
an innovative method for conducting visual research that can also be used as a design tool.
I am also an expert in the use of qualitative analysis software such as NVivo (Lumivero).
My research develops from my practice as a designer using artificial light
as the main element inspiring and informing the creative process.
The aim of my doctoral research is to explore and articulate the use of emitted light
as a relatively new “material” in the field of contemporary jewellery design.
The introduction of electronics in jewellery and in particular the use of light emitting diodes (LEDs),
raise interesting questions about the identity and the role of the jewellery object,
especially in relation to other electronic appliances worn on the body,
or to other lit objects working as body adornment, but commonly recognised as gadgets.
The articulation of a vocabulary for the material “light”,
appropriate to the field of contemporary jewellery, draws from a practice-based model of research,
where experimentation and reflection in and through practice are the fundamental aspects of the methodological approach.
