Andrea d’Amore was born in Livorno and lives in Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi (AR). He graduated in Literature and Philosophy in Florence, at the same time he made different experiences of cooking and making art. His practice today fuses experiences of dialogue, sharing and community with images to create atmospheres. Often the experience is mediated through the cooking and hosting.
