Filippo Pietro Castrovinci , born in Alassio (SV), began working with metal at a young age alongside his uncle, a master art blacksmith. This experience sparked in him a deep passion for the art of wrought iron, which he continued to cultivate throughout the years.
In 2004 he co-founded the Italian Association of Art Blacksmiths with other master blacksmiths and today is its president. He participated in numerous national and international exhibitions and events, which allowed him to confront other masters and acquire new techniques and inspirations for his creations.
His works are the result of careful and evolving study; he experiments with new design and creation techniques to produce innovative works where the past and the present mingle, thus relaunching the debate on the legitimate use of new tools and technologies in the field of art and creativity. As an artist with an astonishing identity and a distinct signature, he expresses his quest for perfection and his creative thinking, where nothing is left to chance or improvisation.
Today, together with his daughter, he runs the company "ArteInFerroCastrovinci" in Capri Leone (ME), specialized in the artistic processing of metals, where he devotes himself more and more to his true passion: art and more specifically the sculpture.
