Born in 1981,he lives, dies and works in Bassano del Grappa.
People are used and don't care nothing about him.
He has always badly drawn and he never knows what to draw...
He draws in the dark, underground, when he wants, isolated.
In Diego Knore's imaginary, paints comes to life disguised as sub-human creatures, female figures surrounded by gold, marked in black, high-strung animals...
He started drawing in 1998 with ANIMAL KORPS crew, his approach to drawing concerns the lettering.
In 2004, he sets foot on streer art's world, he completely changes the way to express himself, he leaves aside the letters and he embraces illustration, drawing monsters, disguised animals and quirky characters (cannibals, gnawed-off human limbs, worms, profane images) fusing with logos and letters.
He draws in abandoned factories, he begins to travel and establish contact with people.
He establishes new friendly and working relationships with many artists who led him to delve into research of new techniques that stimulate him to move from walls to canvas.
In 2007 he founded INFART, a collective that support and promote street art and
cutting edge contemporary art.
The following year he created ORTOBOTANIX, an underground art shop gallery.
