Fuente de Sonido 2026

Recycled lamp, Playtron MIDI controller, alligator clip cables, PC and speaker. 


This device for collective listening and experimentation. works through the contact between bodies, water, metal and technology, the audience can modify a soundscape in real time, built from underwater recordings made at the fountain in Piazza Maggiore, Bologna.

The MIDI controllers integrated into the sculpture add or remove different frequencies from the underwater recording.

Ruido 2025

Field recorder, plastic membrane, laser, mirror, and speaker with a custom-made enclosure laminated with fibreglass and polyester 
50 x 30 x 45cm.

Interactive sound and light installation.
Amplification and light projection system with real-time recording. 
Activated by the audience’s presence, sounds are captured and amplified, causing it’s vibrations to reflect on a mirror that transforms them into visible traces.

Ekos 2023

Áudio: 4’06’’

Low-fired red clay, high-fired white clay, refractory black clay.



This practice xplores the relationship between matter and sound, using ceramics as a medium to investigate acoustic phenomena through a sculptural and experimental approach.

Through the hand-building of organic, intuitive ceramic vessels, I explore how form, airflow and gesture produce different resonances and sonic behaviours.





Sculpture


Geometrie di un corpo espanso
S—04












Máster in Sculpture ABABO Bologna. Fenomenología del corpo. prof. Sergia Avveduti. Photography Workshop by Nicoló Gandolfi.
Project executed in Villa delle Rose 2026.

Geometrie di un corpo espanso 2026

Photografy colletion (4) 18 x 24 cm

The project approaches space as a sensitive body, activated and transformed through gesture. Situated between the everyday and the performative, it explores temporary forms of relation with the landscape through actions such as holding and weaving.

The braid becomes a root, bridge and support system, while the foliage expands into an extension of the body. Photography captures this moment of precarious balance, creating a pause in our habitual ways of moving through and inhabiting space.






Histeria
S—05


Histeria 2024

42 × 42 cm
Wood, silicone, greyboard, filler and spray paint.

Histeria explores the body as matter, memory and political territory, examining how structures of power shape its perception and representation.

A structure resembling a trap encloses a symbolic organ evoking the uterus. The work forces the viewer into a slow and cautious approach, transferring part of the tension and symbolic violence associated with the female body to the viewer.

Aquí Nadie 2023

Maya Di Maula, Emma De Davide, Emma Asensi, Anna Sala

Public Performance

Aquí Nadie is a collective journey materialised as a visual and poetic archive composed of postcards, maps, photographs and a video performance. The work emerges from our relationship with the spaces we inhabit daily but do not truly belong to: gentrified spaces that impose a form of uprooted and precarious existence.

In 1837, Charles Babbage imagined that no sound would ever entirely disappear:

“The air itself is one vast library, on whose pages are forever written all that man has ever said or woman whispered.”

The world would thus become an invisible archive where sounds persist, preserving traces of presence and absence. There is something deeply phantasmagorical about this idea: sound as a force that carries information, traverses time, invades space and disrupts established ways of perceiving and relating to one another.

For me, this invisible library raises questions of presence, power and occupation. Whose voices endure? Which sounds are amplified, which challenge the established order, and which remain at the margins? I approach sound as a means of intervening in these dynamics, allowing women’s voices not to be attenuated, but to resonate, occupy and overflow into territories historically shaped by exclusion, particularly in their technical, material and constructive dimensions.
Words, sounds and ideas for culture, music, image and space.

I am a creative practitioner working across sound design, copywriting, sculpture, installation and artistic research.

I develop concepts, narratives and sensory experiences that connect language, sound, image and space. My work explores how ideas can take shape across different media, from written concepts and sonic compositions to physical objects and spatial interventions.

Combining conceptual research with hands-on experimentation, I work with field recordings, sound systems, materials and text to create projects rooted in context, atmosphere and critical inquiry.
