“Hi there!

Let me briefly introduce myself. I’m Federica Di Pietrantonio, I was born in 1996 in Rome, where I both live and work. I studied painting at RUFA - Rome University of Fine Arts and for a short period I moved to Ghent in Belgium, at KASK, writing my thesis “spending free time”.

At the moment I’m part of Spazio In Situ, an artist-run space created in Rome about 5 year ago, and I’m co-founder and co-editor of ISIT.magazine, an independent publishing project born in 2018, that it’s basically a contemporary art magazine both online and offline. My research focuses on relationships and processes that develop from simulated or virtual realities, videogames and social platforms.

I usually work with different media, from painting to video to media installations. I had the chance to exhibit in different places and cities, some of them are Las Palmas in Lisbon, The Gallery Apart in Rome, Gouvernement in Ghent, and Virginia Bianchi Gallery online. At the moment I’m doing a residency at Manifattura Tabacchi in Florence where I am developing the project “not so far away”, a research inside videogames environment about nature, cities, urban life and so on…”
