Born in Ravenna, Italy, in 1996 and based in Rotterdam, Matilde Stolfa is an interdisciplinary artist and researcher whose practice revolves around the investigation of the interdependencies between environment, dwelling, socioeconomic and cultural factors in an age of extreme climate change.
Her research specifically focuses on the relationship between water and land, grounding her work in shallow waters, intertidal zones, marshes and overall in transitional spaces. Through site-specific and site-responsive installations, documentary, photography and material research she crafts immersive and intuitive narratives. Matilde sees herself as a storyteller, constantly crafting new narratives that explore and adapt to our changing coastlines and rising sea levels.
