Sebastian was a boy when he left Catania and family to do the clown and the busker A difficult choice. In Sicily in the late 70s, for part of the population, out family order was still perceived as a harbinger of doom. Growing up in a patriarchal family, disobedience Sebastian scratched paternal authority and shook the foundation of the family.
Making the artist meant also questioning the manhood. The family would be derided. A son with the craze for art, theater, music, was puppo (homosexual).
For the father, Sebastian had only two options: return to the ranks or be excluded. For Sebastian it there was only one: rebel against this claustrophobic vision of life. Sebastian decided to go it alone, go away, in northern Europe.

At 50 years is a versatile artist: musician, actor, clown, set designer, luthier, craftsman. He works in social projects for children and young people. He lives in Rome and feels free.
Over time he has become the wounds in resources. He left behind lives and made them other, continuing to do what he does best: do not stop dreaming and to dream.
"Sarabande" is a work on the deliverance of a man.
