Taste is my action, the immediate act of creation, the rest always carries a message for humanity.
I was raised amidst bars and boutiques—where bottles of Campari and retail displays with mannequins intertwined seamlessly throughout my childhood. For me, material boundaries do not exist. I have always been drawn to diversity, intimate narratives, hidden backstages, and the layers beneath the surface. The pursuit itself is seductive. I seek all that is soft yet bold, fluid yet fleeting—but above all, authentic.
