In her work, Ambra Castagnetti investigates and dissolves the feelings of unease that emerge from the experience of everyday life. Through sculpture, painting, installation, and video, the artist develops a research practice centered on natural, feminine, and animal forms, redefining her relationship with reality.
Queen Bee, 2026 is crafted with Breccia Medicea dell’Acquasanta and beehive, with a base in Rosso Rubino marble.
The artist employs a plurality of materials and media, from ceramics to metals, from marble to wax, and moving images, constructing a layered language that explores the complex tension between the poetic and the political, between reality and fiction. The result is a fluid and ever-changing imaginary in which the intimate dimension intertwines with the collective one, opening up new possibilities for reading and interpretation.
