Born in Venice in 1976.
Sari's favourite expressive medium for more than 15 years is contemporary mosaic, which he creates with glass, marble, resins, stones and various materials, using a technique defined as ‘direct’, which consists of directly gluing the tesserae onto the support, so that the final result is made more ‘alive’ by the reflection of light. To realise his works, he almost exclusively uses glass produced in Venice: Venetian enamels and gold leaf from the historic Orsoni furnace, murrine produced by Effetre in Murano and a few special pieces for nuances from Morassutti Mosaici in Spilimbergo. Over time, instead of using the ready-made tiles on the market, the artist began to model the components himself, giving his figures a new vibrancy.
