Biography

Claudia Fuggetti (b. 1993, Taranto, Italy) is a visual artist and photographer whose work investigates the intersections between nature, technology, and contemporary perceptions of transformation. Through photography, digital matter, and speculative ecologies, her practice explores hybrid forms and post-natural metamorphosis as expressions of an evolving relationship between the organic and the synthetic.

Fuggetti holds a Master’s degree with honours in Digital Cultures from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts. Her works have been exhibited at major national and international institutions and events, including Les Rencontres de la Photographie Arles (2018), Copenhagen Photo Festival (2021), PhMuseum Days (2022), Giovane Fotografia Italiana (2022), Unseen Photo Fair (2024), Circulation(s) (2025), Photo Elysée Museum (2025), Fotofestiwal Łódź (2025), and the European Photography Month in Tokyo (2025), among others. Her work was also selected by Der Greif for the European platform FUTURES Photography.

In 2025 she was selected for the Emergence Sector at Paris Photo, the leading international fair dedicated to contemporary photography.

She has received several recognitions, including First Place in Fine Art at FAPA (2025), the LensCulture Critics’ Choice Award (2024), an Honorable Mention in Fine Art at the IPA (2023), an Honorable Mention from the Innovate Grant (2024), and the BJP Edition 365 Award (2021).

In 2021, she authored an essay for the Francisco Carolinum Museum in Linz, further expanding her engagement with theoretical and critical discourse.
