I draw my characters with chalk on pavement, streets or sidewalks in urban public areas. The ephemeral nature of this Italian ancient art form has taught me how to communicate immediately feelings to the viewer cause my work will disappear as soon as the wind blows, as fast as the rain comes”In Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) in 2015, he has made this work in the Piazza del Carmine, of great beauty.Photo © Daniela Serra – All Rights Reserved
