I’m ike (as in ee-keh, that is a silly name that stuck with me).

I’m a italian queer illustrator currently based in Nottingham (UK), where I doodle, paint, and print from the labyrinthic basement of the Carousel, a community building devoted to creatives.
I also tattoo from  the rooftop of Cobden Chambers, inhabited by pigeons and the lovely poeple of Studio Dreamland.

I like bold, punchy colours, weirdos, queers, and lines that look a little wonky.
In my spare time I like to ride my pink bike, forage urban trash treasures to bring back home to my increasingly exhasperated housemates, hoarding picture books, playing my ukulele badly, and thinking up increasingly punny names for a transmasc band.

I have a wonderful collaboration with my incredibly talented partner
in life and crime art, Benji-Rose: together we are Pink Menace
and run workshops, markets and other queer mischief in Nottingham.
