Aeolus is the king of the winds in greek mythology; in this sculpture the face appears with puffy cheeks while the wind is blowing. This artwork entirely in steel, made of small pieces welded by hand one by one, it took a long time to complete, as can be seen from the quantity of tiles joined together. The contrast between the massive bulk and the idea that the winds give off gives an air of mystery suspened, thinking of greek mythology.

I was born in Italy ('52) near Modena, the same city where I currently live. I graduated in Università di Bologna literature and philosophy, DAMS, Disciplines of Art, Music and Show Arts. I followed the course of studies in Cinema and Theatre In the 80's and 90's I had several experiences as a documentary director, and short films of my own productions, of a narrative and experimental type. The most important of 91-,92 is 'In The Shadow of These Dense Arms', has had recognition in Italy and abroad film-festivals. It was about ecology, the dense arms is about the branches of a real huge secular tree. It was inspired by the book by Italo Calvino 'The rampant Baron'. It was shot in a truly enchanting place which is the Medici villa of Pratolino, in Florence, then villa Demidoff,where there's a park with beautiful, huge secular trees. Later in 1992 I make artistic direction of theater show, in Laurentian celebrations of the 500 centenary of death of Lorenzo De' Medici, in the Medici castle of Cafaggiolo, in Mugello, Firenze. Then I abandoned the cinema and theater cause it was unsustainable. So I became an entrepreneur in industrial steel furnishing, and interior design furnishings. Sculpture had always been a passion of mine with materials such as crete. So I started experimenting with steel in small welded blocks for a large mask, as well as complements of furniture; later I created some figurative-espressionist compositions, even large to cm 150. My subjects always date back to cinema and theatre; there is always an action in motion, a theatrical story, the myth. The themes range from Ulysses of Omero, Dante, but also to Hollywood characters, of how to theater of S. Beckett.
