Marta Di Francesco(1978) is a London based visual artist, exploring new aesthetics, merging poetics with code.In her practice, she investigates digital identity and its fragmentation, exploring and questioning it through digital bleed, time displacement, processing, and through the sculptural quality of time in volumetric aesthetics.
For nearly a decade she has been merging a conceptual, critical approach with a search for metaphysical, poetic correspondences between the body, the spirit and the metaverse, writing and creating radical pieces that inhabit and crossover poetry, dance and code, and working through multidisciplinary collaborations to explore new expressions and conversations.
