Gaia D'Arrigo is a Rotterdam-based interdisciplinary designer and artist originally from Milan, Italy. In her practice, she combines material research and storytelling to investigate anthropogenic environments, contaminated landscapes, and toxic phenomena. She researches the interaction of the environment, matter, and the human body, as well as cultural phenomena manifesting in the material realm. Her work is channeled through out unconventional material archives, functional art pieces, installations, and performances that challenge the relationship between design fiction and the narratives surrounding consumerism, standards, and exhaustion. Gaia contributed to the Future Materials Bank with her project CiucciaNebbia.
