Ludovica Gioscia, born in Rome in 1977, works and lives in London. Strongly process-based, Gioscia’s practice reads like a diary of layered experiences and relations. Often employing unusual materials, such as cat hair, emotions and energy, the artists’ studio functions as the catalyst for non-linear ecological experiments.

Lo spirito rivoluzionario delle figurine Fiorucci, Museo della Figurina, Modena, IT (2019); Nuclear Reaction Cosmic Interactionat Ex Elettrofonica, Rome, IT (2018); Infinite Present, Baert Gallery, Los Angeles, US (2017) and Shapeshifters, Max Mara, London, UK (2017).
