Biography
Mazzocca & Pony creates her art with her old clothes, which came from a desire to describe the whole universe without material things. From this thought comes the pseudonym Mazzocca & Pony: Mazzocca is her last name and her legacy, the contact with the real, physical world, Pony is the name of her great life suspended, invisible and immortal.

Mazzocca&Pony – Pseudonym of Luigina Mazzocca.
