  2. Andrea Roggi was born on July 2nd 1962 in Castiglion Fiorentino, Tuscany. In his teenage years the artist began to cultivate some of his many interests, including painting and poetry, until he gradually focused on sculpture. Roggi has produced a number of public artworks located in Italy — mostly in Tuscany and Umbria — and abroad.

  24. The leitmotif of Andrea Roggi's works, metaphorically represented by the Tree of Life, both in its iconographic meaning and as a symbol of plant life, is depicted by taking inspiration from the natural surroundings of his atelier in Castiglion Fiorentino, made of century-old olive and cypress trees. As human figures integrate with the plant forms, they fuse into a seamless whole imbued with a sort of "magic realism", where the diverse elements blend together creating artworks dazzling with intricate detailing and charm

  35. Through the iconography of the Tree of Life, Andrea Roggi communicates a sense of belonging to the native land. The cypress is, along with the olive tree, the other element of Roggi's Tuscan nature. The artist created a bronze sculpture of extraordinary evocative power, where two figures are fused into a single cypress trunk, to such an extent that they themselves become roots and foliage. Supporting the whole tree, they are the foundation of the high crown, as if they wanted to mark from here a new beginning for what has yet to grow.
