PIERGIORGIO REGAZZO
The beauty of the places where I was born and grew up, Padua and the Veneto region, have greatly influenced my passion for art.
Ever since I was a child I have been fascinated by the history and characteristics of the monuments and historic buildings in these magical cities: the attention I pay to detail and the precision with which I look around me derive from the complexity inherent in the beauty that has surrounded me for many years.
If my heart is 100% Italian, my spirit is certainly international.
My career as a dancer has taken me to live in three different countries, opening me up to new cultures and horizons.
I love exploring new realities and dynamics, letting myself be inspired by places and people.
Through dance, I understood that a lot of effort goes into something that is apparently effortless and that hides within itself the greatest sacrifices.
Then, abandoning my comfort zone, I applied the same concept to the luxury market, deciding to take a new path in this sector with the aim of working in the events sector, helping to bring beauty closer to an increasingly wide audience, thanks to the emotions it can arouse.
I am a mix of precision and spontaneity, creativity and discipline, grace and tenacity; the balance that comes from the perfect meeting of opposites.
