WHO WE ARE
With a solid background in the construction sector combined with a passion for art and design Pierpaolo Boccuzzi is an innovative craftsman / artist who experiments with the production of exclusive finishes with artistic mosaic details on monolithic resin or concrete backgrounds.
"My passion is to help individuals and architects to decorate and embellish environments, to show their inspiration, to realize their projects"
In addition to being a craftsman with brilliant manual skills, Pierpaolo is an insatiable researcher of techniques and materials.
For his creations he loves to collaborate and train with the TOPs of the sector, these important references such as ARKdekò Ctr Trattamenti by Mauro Sabbatini , Terracrea and Vineetoceramics who, combined with his experience in laying marble and ceramic make him capable of approaching almost any material.
"In him art and craftsmanship meet, giving life to unique works with a universal breath"
Why mosaic on monolithic backgrounds?
"I love that feeling of space that is found in contemporary design but at the same time I can't give up those details that enhance, those details that excite, that's why I am also very inspired by oriental art ... an art that knows little about a lot, an art that knows how to convey with what is there and also with what is not there.
One of the reasons I'm inspired by this is that I strongly believe that in an everyday environment we want something that gives character, conveys joy but at the same time evokes serenity and relaxation. Something that even after years, looking up, can still steal a smile from us "
Son of art Pierpaolo began to appear in the world of work as a tiler around 16/17 and at the same time to cultivate a passion for mosaics in his own style, inspired by nature, the sea, Apulian landscapes, oriental art , to Van Gogh.
The passion for mosaics ...
“When I discovered the pottery mine that my father had been collecting for decades since the 1970s, it was Magic. Seeing all those ceramics with different styles, textures, colors, was an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
The journey was also an important source of inspiration ... "
In fact Pierpaolo from an early age had, thanks to his parents, the opportunity to travel far and wide visiting countries such as Japan, Indonesia, Thailand, Australia, and then continue into adulthood in India, Nepal, Brazil, Europe, the United States and still Australia.
The artistic mosaic, therefore, also represents, if we want, the expression of this passion for the world in its various facets and the manifestation of these overseas experiences.
One of the most important turning points that continues to infuse creativity in his life today is Meditation, the vision of Master Osho and more concretely the powerful inner work of Arpita Giasolli.
“I believe that I would have no chance to show my sensitivity if I did not continue to dedicate myself to inner growth with Arpita's work. In fact it is what gives me roots to make my yearning for Beauty manifest itself and at the same time I can say that what manifests is the Beauty of the Inner Work itself. "
From a professional point of view Pierpaolo has "trained" as a tiler mainly with his father - Andrea - however over the years he has developed skills working abroad in Germany, Switzerland, the United States, and finally Australia where he specialized with Borgia Marble in the installation of precious materials such as marble, mosaic and slim tech in luxury homes.
