Pietro Delasco was born in 1967 in Brazil, to parents of Italian origin. Son of an artist, a child who loves to spend hours and hours in his father’s studio, learning to clean brushes and spatulas, to order canvases and colours, to catalogues paintings, drawings and sketches, to scrape the residues of color from the palette.

His hand moves by itself drawing without thinking whilst talking on the phone in office meetings, on the edge of the sheets, next to numerical notes, appointments, marketing prospects, reports, budgets. The result are sheets and sheets of faces, objects, shadows, numbers and writings that for him tell the story of a day’s work and for others they begin to become something artistic that is worth keeping. Finally the decision to follow and fulfill the dream of dedicating oneself completely and definitively to art; his art, getting back into the game, continuing to travel but in total freedom, enjoying the time to get to know different cultures and customs.

Today his life and his art, when he is not around the world, are divided between Brazil and Italy.
