Luigi’s works delve into the complexity of the human condition and our profound connection to nature.

He frequently references the struggle of nature to survive the catastrophic impacts of human civilization and the environmental issues it has caused.Drawing from his interest in iconography, religion, mythology, nature,technology, aesthetics, and cinema, Luigi incorporates recurring symbols and motifs into his ever-changing landscape. Layers of paint blend, revealing the depth in which the subconscious becomes an integral part of the visible world.While his artworks may initially seem enigmatic, the references and representations woven into them actively serve to stimulate our collective consciousness and provoke us to reconsider our perception of the world we are shaping.
