Biography

SOS is an Italian artist born in Florence, and who studied in Florence and Urbino. After graduating, the artist lived and worked in different cities: Milan, Florence, Rome, Naples.

Currently, SOS is based in Rome and works both in the studio and on the streets. The artist paints on walls, sticks posters and stickers all over the world, and loves making sculptures from recycled materials like wire and wood. In the studio, SOS works on installations, often seeking new solutions and trying to experiment with new materials and colors.

Last year, SOS participated in various international collective projects located in Naples, Bucharest, Rome, Porto, London, Berlin, Sassenage and St. Denis de l'Hotel.

The characters of SOS are highly stylized in order to convey emotions and feelings. Urban daisies, humanized flowers, are strongly represented in his works. SOS chooses to represent one of the central themes of its works: the defense of the precarious balance between Man, humans, and nature.

SOS is often inspired by social issues. His works express the protection of human rights and the environment. SOS has produced numerous works of art to advocate for equal opportunities. The subjects state the desire of women to be recognized for their own worth like men and the need to be protected by law against any censorship or limitation. There is also a firm commitment against any form of violence against the LGBTQ + community. In addition, in Italy, the fight for the approval of a law is still debated in Parliament for the protection of each individual regardless of their sexual (and / and gender) orientation.

SOS is not only the artist label, but is also a call for inclusion, respect and love.
