I Put Myself To The Test Creating Left-Handed Drawings

Some years ago I was in a camping and my neighbour was a young girl without the right arm. I was totally fascinated by her ability to do everything using only the left.

This made me think that we really discover the skills of our body only when forced. So I’ve decided to realise a series of drawings using my left hand. Hope this little story will give you a new amount of enthusiasm for life.

“Life is beautiful. Really, it is. Full of beauty and illusions. Life is great. Without it, you’d be dead” (Gummo, 1997)

Neither a designer nor an illustrator, but a work in progress trying to combine these two realities.
There is a bit of “padawan” in my surname, the word is used in the Star Wars saga to identify the apprentice of a Jedi. Following this meaning, I try to learn day by day.
