Eleonora Pizzini
Space Designer and Creative Strategist from Italy, currently living in Torino.
Her process explores the narrative power of exhibition devices questioning our relationship with objects. Her formation led to multidisciplinary outcomes from product design, graphic, video, exhibition curation, set design and art direction.
After a BA degree in 2015 at Politecnico di Torino in Design and Visual Communication, focusing on objects and eco-friendly product, she moved to Geneva, Switzerland, where, in 2018, she took her MA of Arts in Design major in Space and Communication at HEAD, Haute école d’art et de design.
Back to Torino in 2018, she took a 2nd level specializing MA in Design for Arts, a new program to innovate the field of visual arts and culture with an interdisciplinary approach in the contemporary art world.
Currently, she is collaborating with creatives across different countries.
