Giulia Cataldi

Giulia Cataldi is an interdisciplinary visual artist and designer with a background in architecture. Experimental, eclectic and empathetic, she works through intersecting and overlapping a variety of analog and digital media: photography, video making, model making, sound recording, performance, and more. She loves everything low-tech and low-fi. Her work is predominantly self-reflective and wishes to open conversations around emotions, mental health, and self-care practices. Her influences come both from her academic studies on primitive shelters and the archetypical notion of home and from her personal interest in the issues raised by female artists - such as Cindy Sherman, Claude Cahun and Francesca Woodman - around the artist’s identity. Based on the premise that ‘our soul is an abode’, her intent is to inspire a knowledge of intimacy through the conquest of the spaces of our moments of solitude, questioning by contrast the contemporary culture of overexposure and the social stigmatisation of boredom.
