Sara Ravelli

2026: Spring

Sara Ravelli (b.1993, Crema, Italy) currently lives and works in Milan.

Sara works across sculpture, installation, and writing, investigating how emotional conditions - particularly vulnerability, exposure and affection - manifest within systems of power involving humans, other living beings, and objects.

She is interested in how feelings emerge within social and domestic environments, and how they can be mobilized as tools to question dynamics of control, authority, hierarchy and care.Sometimes adopting an exaggerated or cartoonish visual language, she aims to foreground sentimental contradictions and emotional ambivalence, particularly drawn to how fiction creates space for the irrational, the sentimental, or the embarrassing to emerge as critical agents within normative structures. Rather than proposing clear solutions, her work lingers in emotional states, using them as generative frameworks to reimagine relationships between bodies, systems, and objects.

She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Accademia di Belle Arti G. Carrara in Bergamo (IT) and a Master of Work.Master from HEAD – Genève, Geneva (CH).
