Born in Siena the 14th of August 1982, I'm a self taught artist; I deal mainly with painting and mail art, but recently I discovered sculpture, graphics and both analogic and digital photography. My favourite media are acrylics, watercolours and self produced pygments, but also found objects, recycling materials and old '30s magazines. I love painting on wood boards because I can paste and nail down there anything, from my old dresses fabrics, to old boots' leather and personal photos, in order to add a more intimate and personal meaning to my artworks. On my artworks's back I often put collages, fabrics and photos, so that the B-side is often as interesting as the recto. I'm the co-founder of the Artistic and Cultural Collective "Non cresco più", which promotes artistic and charitable events. I'm art director at "Casa Là - Farm Gallery", a free and independent gallery fot underground artists. My works have been shown in several italian and international exhibitions and feature in many private collections. My artworks are available on Saatchi Art: http://www.saatchiart.com/ireneraspollini
