ABOUT ME

Ilaria Fumarola, professional bodypainter since 2018 with the ambition of "spreading color around the world". Of Apulian origins but transplanted to Rome, from an early age she demonstrated a strong predisposition for drawing and painting; a passion that, as he grew up, he cultivated in parallel with his classical and legal studies.

 

She took her first steps in the world of work as an organizer of events for children and found in face painting a perfect ally to express her creativity, taking part as a make-up artist in increasingly sought-after events, such as the historic Venice Carnival.

 

She works at the same time in the television sector, as production undersecretary of numerous Mediaset programs (Avanti un Altro, Ciao Darwin, Scherzi a parte...), a profession that makes her grow from a technical and human point of view, and which teaches her to juggle behind behind the scenes, working as a team and completing objectives quickly and effectively.

 

She takes part in her first bodypainting course almost by chance, and it's love at first sight!  She began a long academic journey which led her to obtain the qualification of "Professional Face and Bodypainter" at the Vitali Body Art Academy in Rome.

“Through bodypainting, I transform human surfaces into living canvases: each stroke tells a story, each nuance evokes profound sensations, creating a unique multi-sensory experience and leaving an indelible imprint on the imagination of those who observe”.

He obtained the "Makeup Artist Diploma" at the Professional Makeup Academy in Rome. The combination of bodypainting and makeup makes her accept new work challenges and foreign collaborations, combining color with her great passion for travel.

 

The "Special Effects Diploma" obtained at the REA Academy in Rome allows her to make her professional contribution to film productions and to take part in the creation of short films and films.

 

Her diversified training and constant desire for improvement lead her to achieve important goals in the professional field and make her a multifaceted and versatile artist, determined to spread her art throughout the world with brushstrokes and inspire anyone who crosses her path.
