These structures echo natural processes of growth, peeling, and accumulation, presenting interiority as something revealed gradually through material depth.
Her approach treats sculpture as a means to articulate psychological or emotional space. She constructs small environments with distinct internal logics, encouraging viewers to consider how feeling, memory, or imagination might inhabit layered forms. Vinci’s work is marked by a sensitivity to texture, rhythm, and the quiet unfolding of form.
Ilaria Vinci’s work has been included in solo and group exhibitions at Kunsthaus Zurich (2024); Kunsthalle Zurich, (2023): Museion, Bolzano (2023): Cabaret Voltaire, Zurich (2023); MACRO Museum, Rome (2022); Fondazione Sandretto, Turin (2021) and Kunsthalle Sankt Gallen (2021), among others. Vinci was nominated for the Swiss Art Award, Basel, in 2021. Her works are part of the Public collection of the Kanton Zurich and the City of Zurich.
