Writings

     As a musician and artist, I have always been interested in other forms of expression. I had the opportunity of taking some acting courses several months ago and to deepen my knowledge with the drama teacher Ali De Souza, at RCS.

MOVEMENT

 

            As a student in music, I remember that transmitting emotions was a real issue. Not necessarily because I did not feel what I wanted to express, but because I felt physical blocks.

Creating together

 

Collaborative performances
 

     In most of the performances I have seen that involved musicians and actors, I noticed a repetitive scheme: musicians mostly assume the function of ornament in the final product (the play).

Directing with a clear mind

A year ago, I came up with an ambitious idea. I wanted to create a film based on the music composition that I wrote, Queen of Hearts.

 

Few months ago, I decided to engage into Zazen meditation practice. Some colleagues, musicians and friends had told me their experience with mindfulness practices, and for a while, I was very intrigued.
