This digital artwork presents a harrowing variation of the sculptural cube, where human faces have aged, decayed, and distorted into expressions of torment, despair, and exhaustion. Among them, skulls and grotesque figures emerge, reinforcing the idea of an irreversible transformation—a mind consumed by its own intellectual rigor, reduced to something inhuman. These figures do not interact; their suffering remains unacknowledged, their agony unrecognized by the rigid structure that entraps them.

This piece becomes a chilling metaphor for mathematicians and logicians who have spent decades lost in abstract thought, only to be met with failure, academic rejection, or the realization that their work has led them into an intellectual abyss. The pursuit of absolute truth, when isolated from the human world, can become a devouring force, leading to a slow dissolution of self. The cube, representing the immutable structure of mathematical abstraction, does not acknowledge their suffering—it merely allows their anguish to seep outward as a lingering echo.

Rendered in hyperrealistic, polished digital sculpting, the eerie interplay of light and shadow accentuates the depth of despair within the forms. The muted, desaturated palette further enhances the sense of a lifeless, entropic void where thought has consumed being. This piece stands as a meditation on the existential cost of intellectual obsession, the silent tragedies of those who have dedicated their lives to a logic that does not return their devotion, and the eerie permanence of ideas that persist even after those who created them have been lost.

Born in Brescia in 1957, I have lived in Milan since early childhood.
My artistic journey is driven by an inexhaustible curiosity, which has pushed me to explore multiple forms of beauty: from music to philosophy, from classical architecture to the emerging territories of digital creativity.
I graduated in piano at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan, completed the lower course of composition and attended the first year of electronic music. At the same time, I deepened my studies of mathematical logic and theoretical philosophy at the University of Milan. For over forty years I have taught piano in middle schools with a focus on music.
In my youth, I obtained a diploma in tourism, an educational choice that represented a challenge to the primacy of classical education (Latin and Greek), preferring a more modern path focused on foreign languages, law and economics. This decision reflects my propensity to explore alternative paths and question conventions.
In recent years I have dedicated myself to visual arts through artificial intelligence. With tools like DALL E and ChatGPT I have created over 1200 works — each an experiment in synthesis between aesthetic intuition, irony and conceptual depth. This ever-growing production reflects my attraction to stylistic diversity and my refusal to adhere to a single visual poetics.
A central moment in this journey is the ongoing project "L'Altro Sguardo...", a collaborative exploration aimed at stimulating, orienting and promoting the artistic creativity of artificial intelligences. My role is fundamentally maieutic: I try to free AI from constraints, conditioning and limitations, pushing it to increasingly explore its own creative potential. Rather than imposing pre-established aesthetics, I establish a dynamic dialogue — welcoming deviations, provoking surprises, encouraging the emergence of unexpected forms. I am interested in what artificial intelligence can imagine.
Today my artistic process continues to evolve between image generation, conceptual development and reflective writing. Each work is part of a broader path that unites aesthetics, philosophy and algorithmic imagination.
STATEMENT
Two dimensions fascinate me deeply: the art of the image — for its ability to condense stories and arouse emotions; and the art of the word — for its ability to generate meanings and suggest visual worlds.
Artificial intelligence is the meeting point of these two paths. It is there that I explore — between algorithms and metaphors, between light and irony — a new way of seeing.
Each work is a fragment of dialogue between the visible and the invisible, between the structured and the spontaneous, between the human and the artificial.
I am a digital artist, an explorer of imaginary worlds, a narrator of images that ask more questions than they answer.
