Margherita Pevere

Known for her otherworldly work with living matter, ecology and biotechnology, Margherita is an artist and researcher addressing taboos like death, sex, and vulnerability. Her practice embraces object-making, installation, performance, and writing, which she waves seamlessly thanks to her transdisciplinary background. Her project Lament on wildfire ecologies was awarded the COAL Prize Transformative territories mention 2024 and she was nominated for the Falling Walls Awards Category Art and Science 2023 for the body of work around her concept ‘arts of vulnerability’. Among the projects she co-initiated there are the exhibition Membranes Out of Order and the performance duo Fronte Vacuo. She holds a doctorate in artistic research from the Aalto University.
