ENRICO CARONE ___ ACTOR Belgian from Charleroi out of one of the Italian families that came to work in the coal mines after WW II. Enrico had a serene temperament and an outstanding facility with languages and accents which allowed him to act in both French, Canadian and Italian productions alike, predominantly casted for supporting roles due to his skinny body. Instead, his sexy voice and caramel eyes opened up doors and beds for him: Enrico holds desire as a plural principle and is not looking for a stable relationship.


"men in trouble" is a series composed of rackets that have been hand-embroidered with portraits of fictional male figures against curious backgrounds. Embroidering over drawings and subsequently attaching these to the rackets, the backstories of these male figures have evolved stitch by stitch. From the lavish and grandiose life of a sculptor, to the risky and deceitful existence of a charlatan, the works express the intense, emotional and distempered moments in a man’s life and his pursuit to frame himself within his personal and cultural environments where he juggles to identify and retain his own profound beliefs.
