Miani’s illustrations are characterised by a strong literary interest. Their peculiar thread is love for fantasy and narration connected with realistic, technologic and scientific elements. He always describes the most different technologies, the past, present and futures ones, in connection with their environment, with a special attention to the creation of feasible and fantastic artefacts, architectures and places.
Miani’s independent paintings are based on a process of synthesis and abstraction of his
figurative and narrative imaginary.
