1. Introduce Yourself to the Casawi Community: What drives you? What's your artistic vision, and what sets you apart from the crowd?

I am Yuri Napolitano and I come from Modena, I am based in Milan and I work for the fashion industry.

In my work I bring a passion for history and subcultures, often making real life references to underground scenes.

Having studied at the National Academy of Cinema in Bologna , I also like to create 'characters'. inspired by everything that can be studied from the past.

2. City Inspirations: How has your city influenced your artistic path? Share how its streets, culture, and energy have molded your work.

There is no single city to inspire me, every street has lived and lives something important to know.

3. Creative Process: What fuels your creativity? Whether it's a ritual, a muse, or a moment of clarity, we're keen to learn.

I am an avid reader, always in constant research, I like to naturally mix all the inspirations I draw from art, history, music and cinema in a fresh and contemporary language.

4. City Lifestyle and Art: How the places you lived influenced your career and work?

Milan has certainly given me a lot, here we are in the 'centre' of fashion in Italy and among the most important cities in the world. Every day we can find a chance, an opportunity.

5. Latest or Upcoming Projects: Give us a glimpse into your current endeavors and what lies ahead on your creative journey.

I have so many projects I am working on, others I want to work on soon, I am constantly evolving. The deepest part of a creative person is to never be fully satisfied, so we are always looking for something that makes us happy even for 5 minutes, and then already working on something new.
