esta es la historia de dos globitos que se reencontraron en nyc para empezar un vuelo juntos que durará toda la vida. me acuerdo cuando su historia de amor comenzó y cómo una de mis pinturas significó el punto de partida de esta historia en el 2022💜. ellos decidieron usar mi arte para celebrar su amor, e hice para ellos una colección de 25 cuadros de atardeceres, y me llena de inmensa alegría que esos globitos que estuvieron desde el inicio de la historia los acompañen ahora para dar el paso más importante de sus vidas. vane y carlos mario, gracias infinitas por hacerme parte de su camino, solo deseo para ustedes todo el amor, la felicidad y todas las cosas más bellas de la vida. may your cup always be overflowing🎈i love you both with all my heart. to forever flying together. toti.

“manhattan it’s not just the place where i share my art… i feel like i’m in the right place at the right time. i feel that my three cultures live together inside me here, and that helps me create.” her next goal? “to fill the skies of manhattan with red balloons.”
happy to wake up to this news! for those of you non-italian speakers, here’s the article from the voice of new york translated into english. thank you again for your messages, and i hope 2025 will be a year we all fly higher together in the red balloon 🎈

Just found this painting I did 9 years ago while living in Holland. It’s a self-portrait. It’s amazing to see the similarities with my new landscapes and the balloon pieces flying through the air that I’m working on now. The way the dress ends up becoming flowers — THE flowers I’m painting now. Looking back at the girl who painted this, if I could tell her something, I would hug her and tell her everything was going to be OK. It was a time full of uncertainty and, yes, struggle, but that built my resilience, compassion, and hope for the future. I wouldn’t change a thing. Sometimes, when we’re doing things in the present that don’t make much sense to us, we might question why we’re doing them. Just keep going and follow your intuition. I promise, when you look back on your life, everything will make complete sense. Let this be the only time you look backward: to clarify your present and dream your future🎈

when i don’t know what to do, i always come back to my sketchbook to remember my own voice. there is nothing more honest than what i draw without expectations, directly from my heart to the paper. for now, let’s fly 🦋🎈

I create art to awaken joy, beauty, and hope. My work is all about inspiring others, reminding us of our resilience, vitality, and the power of love. At the core of it all is the balloon—a symbol of freedom, lightness, and the belief that anything is possible. To me, the balloon represents more than just an object—it’s a reminder that happiness is always within reach♥️

My art is a symbol of hope, love, and interconnectedness, fostering bonds between individuals and creating a sense of unity with one another and the world🎈

Director of the Italian Cultural Institute in NYC

Director of the Italian Cultural Institute in NYC Fabio Finotti speaking about my balloon and why it is a powerful symbol. Truly honoured. Thank you. ❤️🎈
“This was one of the most wonderful things when we were children: balloons were powerful. They were able not to go from the sky to the earth, but from the earth to the sky; and when they exploded, they went even higher. When I saw the first paintings with those balloons flying over flowers, the earth, the infinite, and the universe, I was fascinated.” #airsoffreedom#redballoon#rosanaauque#italianculturalinstitute
