Born in Biella in 1968, Alessandro Ciffo joined the world of design only in 1997.
Self-teaching and self-production are the key words of his artistic journey, which is based on the research of the potentialities of silicone, his one and only medium, the only material capable of fully expressing his emotions.
With an outstanding technical control, mastered through tireless experimentations and endless patience, Ciffo creates artefacts that cannot be easily classified, as they are a crossroads between art and design.
Usually employed in sealants, adhesives and insulation, a humble material like silicone becomes poetry in his hands.
With an outstanding technical control, mastered through several experimentations and infinite patience, Ciffo creates one-of-a-kind artifacts.
The material, having abandoned the working tool, is transformed into the typical moustache of this tropic silicone.
Every single tile presupposes a precise, repetitive and always the same gesture.
