Introducing : Maria Tosti was born in 1965 in Perugia, Italy, and lives in a small Umbrian town crossed by the river Tiber. She writes poems since she was a teenager. She participated at several national and international poetry awards along the years, getting many appreciations. Her poetry is a path of reflections and considerations on the human existence and the life experiences. Creating is a breath of art for her, and setting the emotions on the paper is to give voice to the inspiration that comes from inside with insistence. She is convinced that Poetry doesn’t belong only to the intellectuals, but it belongs to everybody because it is a universal message destined to touch the strings of the sensitivity of each individual, permeating the nuances of his feeling.
She likes writing poetry in other languages too, such as English, Spanish and French. She is also passionate about short poems, in the Japanese style, such as haiku, senryu, tanka. One of her haiku was set to music by master Paolo Scatena.
Her literary debut was with the multilingual poetry book "Voci ai confini dell’anima” – “Voices to the Bounderies of the Soul” - published by Thoth Editions/Mario Vallone in the year 2014 both in paper and eBook format. The book includes poems in Italian, English, French and Spanish.
Her artistic works also include visual poems, like haiga and shahai, thanks to her passion for Photography and Drawing. .
Many of her literary and artistic works have appeared in various national and international literary journals, magazines, blogs, websites and anthologies around the world.
She has also written the text of some songs in Italian, looking for a new way of expression and a new artistic technique. Two of her texts have been set to music, one by the Italian composer Pasqualino Moscatelli, and the other by the master Daniel Cianelli.
