"...in the space of a virtual city like Naples, porducer of languages and inflections, he constructs a work that is a cross between art and nature, architecture, sculpture and installation…He sets himself up as an agronomist and architect using art as a pharmakon that assuages and heals the wounds and forces the present to remain such, without decadence and subsidence..."
A. Bonito Oliva 1995
"... A great artist is always an unwitting alchemist. He explores the memory of an archetipal world without realizing it.The motifs of alchemical symbolism emerge in his work independently of his will. It is not the artist who creates the symbol, quite the contrary, is the symbol that imposes itself on the artist.."
A. Shwarz 1995 ...
