They gave me the name of RICO SCAGLIOLA, pronounce it Sca-Li-O-La. Born into Zurich's suburbs on the Easter Sunday of 1985. I later discovered I grew up in a david lynch film, only brighter. I stood alone but loved everybody. Our neighbours had swimming pools. Studied photography at the university of arts from 2006-2010. There I found big M. Now I'm living in the city, tasting its pleasures.
