'Nanoart removes the direct view of the image, and cancels the acquired superiority of sight. This is both a paradox and a provocation, as there has been in every revolutionary artistic movement.' Stefano Raimondi

​

'In an age of artistic grandeur, perhaps there is a need for a healthy and decisive downsizing. Nanoart is an art that makes itself down to the point where it makes itself invisible to the human eye.' Alessandro Scali

'One of the most influential artists in the world of Nanotechnology and Art'. Technarte

The Genesis of Nanoart
My foray into Nanoart began in 2006, marking a pivotal juncture where art meets the avant-garde world of nanotechnology. This exploration extends beyond mere artistic expression; it's a venture into the realm where the unseen becomes a profound medium for creation, blending the worlds of science and art. Through this hybridization of disciplines, Nanoart pushes the boundaries of perception, relativizing the human experience by revealing dimensions imperceptible to the naked eye. Here, the human eye is no longer sovereign, but just one perspective among many.

Collaboration with the Polytechnic of Turin

A cornerstone of my Nanoart journey has been the collaboration with the esteemed Polytechnic of Turin. Working alongside a dedicated team of Ph.D. students and under the visionary guidance of Prof. Fabrizio Pirri, we explored the intricacies of nanoscience. This partnership not only enriched the technical aspects of my work but also highlighted the fusion of artistic vision with scientific precision, creating a hybrid process where human creativity meets the cutting edge of technology.

Redefining artistic boundaries

My work in Nanoart pushes against the traditional confines of art. "Dimensione attuale" and "Oltre le colonne d’Ercole" are not just artistic endeavors but metaphors for societal shifts and humanity's exploration into the unknown. By transcending the visual spectrum, these pieces invite viewers to engage intellectually and emotionally with themes that both question human centrality and explore how technology reshapes our perception of the universe. In a world where the seen is often taken for granted, Nanoart hybridizes art and science, offering a new lens through which to view the unseen.

Philosophy and vision

In a world where art often gravitates towards commercialism and grandeur, my Nanoart stands as a philosophical rebellion. It represents a return to the essence of art: to question, evoke, and challenge. By rendering the invisible visible, Nanoart relativizes humanity’s place in the world, reminding us that much of what surrounds us escapes our senses. Through Nanoart, I propose a new paradigm—one rooted in hybridization, where the human and the non-human converge, and the boundaries of perception are continuously renegotiated.
