Giuseppe (or Peppe) Perone was born in Naples in 1972. He lives and works in Rotondi, Avellino. After attending the Artistic High School in Benevento, in 1994 he graduated in sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples and since 1998 he began to create sculptures and installations in which he proposes animals and everyday objects taken from their context, covered and crystallized with a thin layer of sand, a material that alludes both to childhood games and to the fragility of things subjected to processes of continuous transformation.
