Artist Bio

Giulia Fassone is a post-disciplinary artist who uses installation, sculpture, ceramics, painting, textiles, photography, paper, printmaking, writing and performance.

With a background in Philosophy and History of Art, her practice is invested in both concept and process. Her tactile, textured works present the human and the non-human as poles of a continuum. Hybrid forms challenge established classifications: human/animal/plant/mineral, organic/inorganic, healthy/diseased, alive/dead. These shape-shifting, fluid works embody, through their strong physicality, the radical interconnectedness of all things, a ‘vibrant matter' which is both material and immaterial.

Giulia also works as an educator, chef, and gardener. These professions are integral to her practice, which synthesises these aspects of her experience by engaging with the materials and processes of gardening and cooking. Her work manipulates plants, soil, food and organic matter to address ecological and environmental issues, in particular the overlaps between personal and geological time and the connections between memory, grief and the cyclicality of natural processes.
