Curatorial practice, research, publishing.

I’m a curator and researcher with a background in Classical Studies and a BA in Comparative Languages and Cultures from L’Orientale, University of Naples. I completed my MA in Art Education in Curatorial Studies at Zurich University of the Arts.

My work moves across curating, writing, and collaborative projects at the intersection of mythology, migration, and history. Rooted in Southern Italian and Mediterranean contexts, my research explores how narratives of Otherness take shape through bodies, cosmologies, and borders. I’m interested in speculative approaches and minor epistemologies, focusing on how liminal figures embody displacement and reflect contemporary structures of marginalization.

I see curating as both a political and epistemic gesture: a way to create spaces of contradiction, to unsettle dominant narratives, and to give form to what resists legibility. I’m committed to holding space for opacity, vulnerability, and dissonance, while staying attuned to the tensions and potentials of collaboration.

I don’t believe in individualism, I believe in community. None of my projects have been developed in isolation, nor do I believe in solitude as a mode of creation. My practice is grounded in exchange, in shared thinking and collective processes. For me, ideas take shape in conversation, through mutual care, friction, and the constant movement between perspectives.

I write in both Italian and English, but I think in Neapolitan: a language that for me embodies the perspectives and complexities of the Global South.
