Born and raised in Italy, she received informal art training from established local artists but decided to learn and practice architecture in Venice instead of pursuing her art calling.

In the last 20 years she worked and lived in three different continents, enjoying cities like Venice, Lisbon, San Francisco and more recently Singapore, where in 2008 she decided to move after 15 years of visiting Asia.

She sold her first piece in her teens but since then while working as an architect she painted only for family and friends.

Her international and multicultural experience is reflected in her abstract art which finds inspiration from universal elements and shared feelings which can be experienced by each of us.

At times she also captures innocent moments which as unexpected surprises can awaken the child within us.

Calufetti-Lim expresses her enjoyment of layering vibrant colours by using a technique of fast brush strokes and bright contrasts.
