About

Cosima (1989) is a multi-disciplinary artist of Alpine and Mediterranean origins creating sculptures that are mutable, organic or imply movement, as well as performances and installations. ​​Interested in the dynamic and evolving nature of form, she explores materiality, space, time and the physical and symbolic resonance of these elements.​

The driving force is a will to celebrate multiplicity and metamorphosis, as well as a pursuit of the transcendent; to find the timeless, meaningful, and deeply felt within the everyday. Primarily an act of care, it is also an act of resistance; against the classifications and rhythms of capitalist and patriarchal systems that have severed us from embodied and ancestral knowledge, disrupting the communal and cyclical.
