Amalia, where are you from and where do you live now?

I'm from Messina, a seaside town in Sicily, but I've been living in Rome for seventeen years.
How would you describe your artistic style?

It's very difficult for me to describe my artistic style. I think it's very graphic, synthetic. And when I can... with irreverent content! My favorites :)
Vector or watercolor?

Vector!
New York or remote mountain hut?

New York!
Becks or Merlot?

Becks! I love beer very much!
And a little Proust: What is your idea of perfect happiness?

That perfect happiness does not exist? It sounds very dark as a thought. In fact, it would be easy to be happy, but mankind, by nature, wants more and more, so it's difficult to stay happy for a long time. What a difficult question!
Which living person do you most admire?

I would say Franca Leosini, she is a great woman and journalist.
What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

I would certainly say faith.
What or who is the greatest love of your life?

My beautiful cat, her name is Olga and she's my love! I have a future as cat lady in store for me ;)
If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be?

I would like to be a mighty witch, who, with her magical powers, makes the world a better place. It's nice to dream!
The world needs more...

good vibrations, positive thoughts. And certainly much more irony: irony will save the world!
I’ve changed my mind about…

I'm very stubborn, so it's difficult for me to change my mind. But when it happens, I always think it's a good thing. It's interesting to see the world from other points of view!
What most people don't understand is that…

you must not take yourself too seriously.
