“I love to capture emotions and communicate in a discreet and subtle way.”
Hetepheres was officially born in 2003.
I’m the creator of this brand.
By “officially,” I mean the year I launched the first edition of the website. I chose this name because of my interest in Egyptian history, particularly Queen Hetepheres I. She was the wife of Pharaoh Sneferu (famous for the Bent Pyramid) and the mother of Pharaoh Khufu (also known as Cheops). I admired her taste in jewelry and precious artifacts. Additionally, the name is connected with my earlier interests in esotericism, crystals, mythology, and Celtic culture.
When I started working in graphic design, Hetepheres was my personal brand. I used it as both a portfolio and a blog.
Today, it exists only as a personal and private blog.
Bio
I was born and raised in a small town in nord-est of Italy, during the dark-wave music years, it should be for this reason I had an insane passion for cemeteries, with the consequent obsession with comics and drawing. The first I set it down and the second kidnapped me.
At the university I chose a degree course that no longer exists (a mixture between cinema and computer science), which gave me a way to appreciate and love art and technology. During my career I used the interactive design to merge all the senses, I believe you can not see the world without a sinestesic point of view. In my personal and professional projects, I always explore the balance between analog and digital, merging them according to the feelings I want to transmit.
