DJ and author of the European hit Limos – The Night Goes On, released by Undiscovered Recordings London (1982–2000). Founder of SKYBAR Wireless Lifestyle Support, among the first playful MMS messaging apps, acquired by Nokia in 2001. Art Director and creator of the LUISAVIAROMA concept (2002–2015), he designed iconic windows for international brands, conceived as installations blending art, fashion, and creative communication. A pioneer in moving beyond the traditional logic of retail, he connected contemporary art, communication, and digital storytelling. In 2010, he created digital content for NTT DoCoMo, and in 2015 he curated the exhibition Pianeta EXPO 2015 – conoscere, gustare, divertirsi (to know, to taste, to enjoy) at Triennale Milano.
A multidisciplinary artist, he has oriented his research towards the Immersive Humanities, integrating contemporary art, emerging technologies, and the humanities. His projects unfold across museum, educational, social, and clinical contexts, transforming cultural content into experiences capable of generating emotion, knowledge, and a renewed centrality of the person.
He collaborates with Tornabuoni Arte on the sculpture Pezzi di Pace, commissioned by the Roberto Casamonti Collection and published by Forma Edizioni. The work was included in the Antologia Scelta Tornabuoniarte – Arte Moderna e Contemporanea 2024 and exhibited in the gallery’s spaces and at international art fairs including Artissima, Artefiera, and MiArt.
A foundational work in his path within the Immersive Humanities, Dante il Poeta Eterno was presented in Brunelleschi’s Pazzi Chapel and visited by more than 130,000 people, closing in the presence of the President of the Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella. Acquired by Harvard University’s Digital Collection, the work is recognised as a model of cultural mediation based on participatory emotion. The project also included a donation of technological infrastructure to the Opera di Santa Croce.
The VRHD version – Virtual Reality Hypnosis Distraction – was developed through a joint project with Dr Pasquale Vaira, Director of the Unit of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care 1 at the IRCCS Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza Hospital in San Giovanni Rotondo, an institute recognised by the Italian Ministry of Health, within a neuroscientific research programme. The work integrates virtual reality, hypnotic distraction, and immersive artistic content as non-pharmacological support in clinical pathways, bringing a structured cultural experience into the VRHD protocol for the first time.
Among his public works, La Stella di Dante (2021), developed under the scientific direction of Stefano Mancuso and donated to the city of Florence for the 700th anniversary of Dante, is a permanent environmental installation in San Donato Park, capable of absorbing up to 234 tonnes of CO₂ over 50 years.
He has exhibited and developed projects for the Académie de France in Rome, Andrea Bocelli Foundation, Galleria dell’Accademia, Grand Palais, Italian Cultural Institute in New York, Louvre, Matera European Capital of Culture 2019, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Miami Art Basel, M9 Museum, PAC Milan, Mies van der Rohe Pavilion, Palazzo delle Esposizioni, Palazzo Reale, Palazzo Strozzi, Triennale Milano, and Whitechapel Gallery.
Based in Florence, Felice Limosani Studio operates as a Benefit Company, integrating cultural, social, and environmental purposes into every project. A guest lecturer at universities and research centres, he is included in the book Italo Globali (Fausto Lupetti Editore, 2014) among Italy’s leading innovators.
