Born in Brooklyn, NY, he is now based in Dallas and works in large-scale murals, public sculpture installations, and mixed media canvases. His ever-growing conceptual practice explores the multitudinous angles of abstraction through spontaneous art forms and movement.  Rizzi's practice is defined by its spontaneity and exploration. His hands passively conduct ideas, histories, subcultures, and emotions, as he mines for light bulb moments through trial and error.

When creating his art, Rizzi selects the most dynamic portions of gestural marks and rearranges them to create bold, playful, and incredibly colorful pieces that ask questions only to answer them moments later. His work is an animated conversation between positive and negative space facilitated by rhythm. He likens his work's hues to musical notes -bright colors are horn pops, muted tones form bass lines.

Rizzi's work possesses an undeniable ability for placemaking, regardless of scale. His large-scale works are statements of grandiosity and playfulness that fully immerse viewers with every appraisal. He interacts directly with the viewer's subconscious mind through pop a motifs like saturated palettes, strong outlines, and repetition, creating easier communication with his audience.

His paintings are a celebration of the continuous script of life, with each brushstroke racing to tell its own story in a shifting visual language that is both personal and universal. Whether through his murals or his studio work, Rizzi's art is a testament to the power of creativity and self-expression.

Above all, Rizzi's greatest focus lies in contributing his own voice to the contemporary artistic dialogue by synthesizing all that he observes and all that inspires him. His work is an ongoing journey of discovery, searching for a shifting visual language able to convey Rizzi's own unique story, an inner tale transcending words.
