My Bio
I am interested in Fine Arts. True Art; deep and meaningful themes and subjects, things that use to be forgotten and -even more!- rejected, deprecated, censored by both the so-called manistream and the masses.
I particularily have a huge thing about dolls. So Bellmer and his descendants are an important reference. Tari Nakagawa, Amano Katan, Ryo Yoshida, Mari Shimizu & such friends.
I also love the struggle between unreal, surreal and hyperreal.
And I'm deeply interested in the sacred, hence religious and esoteric symbology and objects. I run a personal musical project about this, too.
I also love old medical equipments, taxidermy, freaks of nature... References to such things are always welcome in my imagery.
Favourite genre of music: Apocalyptic, Neofolk, Dark ambient, Experimental, Power Electronics
Favourite photographer: Irina Ionesco, Daikichi Amano, Ken Ichi Murata, John Santerineross, David Nebreda, Slawomir Rumiak, Joel Peter Witkin, Gottfried Helnwein, Pierre Molinier, Ellen Rogers, Paulina Otylie Surys, Andreas Serrano, Sarah Sitkin, Sally Mann....

ART CONTEST!!!!
0 min read
I am always very interested in the ways artists reinterpret my own works, but I also would like to see what they could create just based on my image: a sort of portrait based on my pictures, but not a mere copy of the photo; I am mostly curious about how they could imagine me in a totally different context.
So I decided to start a contest :)
Rules are simple:
- Make a drawing or a painting portraying me, but without just copying one of my pictures;
- Works will be judged based on originality and technique;
- Send the work to shivabel@hotmail.it within the 15th of january, 2015.
Prizes will be:
- 1st place: 3 numbered collectable DVDs

What does this word mean?
It's the italian word for "discourtesy" (even if it also has some fades of other meanings, expecially sexually turbid). And this is actually what I have been, not updating this journal for about 20 months :(
BUT it's also the title of my last collaboration with visionary filmmaker Cosmotropia De Xam. Oh, how funny, my latest journal was about the previous one we had made... it might seem I have nothing else to talk about, but no, it's not this. It's just by chance, I swear.
It seems the public is really loving the movie. This makes me giggle, I love it too ^_^
It's the usual psychotrip we make. Feel free to check

Amazing filmmaker Cosmotropia De Xam strikes again, and finally releases the last "chapter" of his trilogy "Kosmische Puppen", a title which - as you might imagine - means "Cosmic Puppets" in german.
This third part, where I star, with me as co-starring and myself as the antagonist is the result of three intense and creative days of shooting and trips we spent some months ago. Some scenes are based on improvisation and some other are the visual description of something which had no words to be told; almost all of them are symbolic representations of
As usual, the trippy soundtrack of Mater Suspiria Vision gives the perfect sonic ambient to
