Biographical notes Stefano Bonfatti was born in Besana Brianza (province of Milan) on June 10th 1976. Since he was young he started to show a marked inclination for drawings, paintings and for the art world. In the '90s his career as a "street artist" began: he would go to the towns' art markets to paint portraits and make caricatures. One day, the passion for experimentation brought him to use a pyrograph by chance, and to the finding of a new particular technique, a new way to "paint" his works.
