ITALY

The art pieces created in Italy draw inspiration from the the Abruzzese landscape, including the olive and mulberry trees, the sea and port, the Adriatic beach, rolling hills, the presence of  its people and animals as doves, pigeons, cats and dogs. The iconic Piccionaia logo, a pigeon designed by my father, architect and multidisciplinary creator V.Hierl, serves as a recurring stencil motif.

My artistic process involves using multi-layered paints mixed with oils on canvas, which are later stretched on handmade wooden frames.

RipattoniArte, a key cultural event in Abruzzo, reaches its 19th edition with a theme exploring new dimensions of creativity. 

" The Artist and Space "

From July 19 to 27, 2025 , the village of Ripattoni will host a multidisciplinary celebration that intertwines visual arts, performance, technology, and reflections on the relationship between the artist, the surrounding environment, and the immensity of possibility. 

“Art transforms space, shapes it and reveals its soul”
