Margherita Soldati
Margherita (IT/NL, 1991) is an artist with a strong curiosity for tactile perception at the intersection of art and sensory well-being. She researches and translates stories and emotions through unconventional ways of using materials - creating three-dimensional patterns and surfaces. In a society that relies mainly on sight, she wants to make it possible to ‘see’ with other senses: in her practice, tactility is the medium through which she communicates and in her works, she often explores the tactile perception to create a more intimate and interactive relationship between the space, the work and the visitors.
Her artistic practice is based in Amsterdam where she co-founded in 2017 Absurd Beings, a female curatorial collective. Since 2020 Margherita is also an advisory board member of Unbore.
