Corinna Gosmaro

Born in 1987, in Savigliano, Italy
Lives and works in Paris, France

Corinna Gosmaro develops a practice across painting, sculpture, and installation that examines how perception is shaped by cognitive habits, cultural paradigms, and inherited systems of interpretation. Moving at the threshold between image and object, her works often emerge from the tension between what is seen and what is projected, between material presence and mental construction. Her research draws on archetypal forms, domestic scenarios, and the evocation of landscape to question the narratives through which we organize reality and define our place within it. Rather than treating nature, culture, and representation as separate domains, Gosmaro approaches them as interdependent fields through which meaning is constantly filtered, displaced, and reconfigured.

Working with a wide range of materials — including dibond, industrial polyester filters, ceramic, bronze, copper, and metal wire — Gosmaro treats medium not simply as support, but as a conceptual agent. Her use of industrial filters, for instance, introduces ideas of selection, depuration, and mediation, while ceramic and metal allow her to connect bodily presence, craftsmanship, and symbolic memory. Across her work, painting often extends into space, while sculpture behaves like a form of thought in motion: proxemic, unstable, and responsive to the viewer’s movement. Her practice resists fixed categories, instead creating environments in which perception becomes active, partial, and open to revision.

Corinna Gosmaro (born in 1987, lives and works in Paris, France) has exhibited widely in institutional and gallery contexts, including Fondazione Memmo, Rome; the American Academy in Rome; GAMeC, Bergamo; Fondazione Pastificio Cerere, Rome; Fondation Fiminco, Romainville; and Schafhof – Künstlerhaus Oberbayern, Freising. Recent solo exhibitions include Paesi Miei at Fuocherello, Volvera TO (2026) and The Point’s Shadow at NEVVEN, Gothenburg (2025).

She took part in the residency programme at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, where she was selected for the Les lauréats programme, and was awarded the Talent Prize in 2018. She was also the recipient of the Italian Fellowship for Visual Arts at the American Academy in Rome. Her works are held in several collections, including Museo Nazionale della Montagna, Turin; Fondazione Garuzzo, Saluzzo; ALA For Art, Naples; and AGI Verona.
