Lucia Pizzani

Caracas , Venezuela
1975

Hailing from Venezuela, Lucia Pizzani is a London-based artist whose expressive practice involves the body and self, always informed by materiality. One of Pizzani’s core concerns is the interrelationship between narratives of women in history and processes of metamorphosis in the natural world. She works across a variety of media, including photography, ceramics, videos, drawings, performance, and installations. Having worked as part of the environmental movement in Venezuela for many years, she has frequently incorporated ecological elements into her artwork. Her research and productions are often hybrid, syncretic and with no defined temporality, allowing the works to have multi-layered readings. Her works are held in collections internationally, including Tate Modern in London and Magasin III Museum for Contemporary Art in Stockholm.
