Bio
Alessandra Sormani is a British-Italian multidisciplinary artist working across photography, video, painting, and sound installation. Her practice examines the impact of digital media and mobile technologies on the shifting boundaries of personal and collective experiences. Recent projects incorporate painting and text to explore themes of belonging and human behaviour within domestic, professional, and societal contexts.
Inspired by her family heritage and ancestral narratives, she investigates intersections between family business, arts, archives, and the dynamics of domestic and professional environments. Her research further engages with systems such as hospitality, theology, education, and social care, emphasising connections between individuals and spaces.
Born in Bristol, she studied at Central Saint Martin’s and Chelsea College of Art in London and is currently based in Clevedon, North Somerset, where she continues her artistic practice alongside managing her family’s ice cream business.
