Walter Passarella was born on 7 August 1960 in Mortara (PV) where he lives and works. 

He studied at the State Institute of Arts in Valenza PO and obtained the Master of Art degree. Since then, he began his artistic activity with considerable praise from critics and the public. From the very beginning, his attention has been focused on the human and social dynamics that have become the main theme of his research. It can be said that the artist has proliferated in the continuous search for a "Vitruvian Man", but exclusively from a philosophical and spiritual point of view of him. 

In his artistic career he uses not only the pictorial medium, but also sculpture with different materials, photography and the creation of sets for theatrical performances. He also illustrated the cover of the book "Il girotondo del piccolo uomo" by the writer Lorenzo Fizzotti Degrati. 

His works can be found in private collections in Rome, Milan, Modena, Bari, Turin, Tokyo, Paris, London, Monaco, Pinacoteca del Pontificio Santuario di Pompei, Geneva, Boston, Miami. The artist is represented by the Smart Coast Gallery (Sorrento).
