Palermo

Summary

I am a young and passionate student with a keen interest in languages, visual communication, and graphic design. Over the course of my three years at the Academy of Fine Arts of Palermo (ABAPA), I have had the privilege of contributing to diverse projects, both alongside seasoned professionals and independently. I was responsible for the graphic and editorial materials accompanying two major exhibitions in Palermo in 2024: Addiopizzo20 at the No Mafia Museum and Rosalia400 at Palazzo Branciforte, the latter celebrating the 400th anniversary of the birth of the city’s patron saint. Additionally, I collaborated with Dr. Steven S. Gouveia (PhD-University of Minho - Braga, Portugal) on the Spanish edition of La Odisea de la Mente, for which I designed the cover and created illustrations for the interior, now available on Amazon. My work reflects a deep commitment to creativity, precision, and the power of visual storytelling.
