DAVYHEAD
Davide was born in Alessandria, Italy. Since early childhood he’s been dedicating himself to drawing.After attending the Art Institute, he graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Genoa, Italy.
Passionate about illustrations and demential caricatures, he coupled vignettes language with painting, producing hibryd works.
His works interacts with the sorrounding environment, communicating with each other just like the sequential language of comics strips.
Self ironic above everything else; without taking himself too seriously, he plays with the graphic sign and the painting gestures; irreverent, with sharp irony, his topics ranges from actuality to social issues, exorcising social ills based on prejudices, clichès and stereotypes.
He’s in love with the music world as well as the arts. He produces caricatures for friends as well as musicians and other artists.
He operates mostly around Genoa, Turin, Milan, Florence, Paris and other cities.
