In our opinion Afro is one of the best glassmakers in Murano Island. Often the masters reproduce several times their most beautiful pieces, going around the same few concepts during their whole life and making thinner the border between the good craftman and the real artist. This is not  Afro's philosophy.

Maybe accidentally, probably for his innate and evident talent, since the beginning of his apprenticeship Afro has been working with the best Murano masters in the first "piazza".

He is legitimately proud of each piece and he willingly explains the technical  features and the ideas behind  each one. He gets excited when he talks about his works: he shows us his last huge glass vase, an incredible bottle with perfect incalmos and murrina, a complex vessel, a strange blown sculpture representing a multicoloured fish, than another vase, a filigree drop, a goblet, again vessels...

On his artworks Afro exercises his extraordinary skills. Each piece is an incredible example of technical ability: incalmo, complex filigree, murrina and rods compositions, often textured with different and deep grindings. 

But the freedom of expression that appears so clearly in his artworks is impressive. The slender silhouettes together with the daring stance of Afro's objects create a sensational, natural and dynamic concept.

The careful study of the alternation of opacity and transparency allows bands of light to filter inside and outside the vessel. The colour combinations are sometimes daring, sometimes classic and rarefied, sometimes they refer to natural materials, always contemporary and innovative.
