Giorgio Zeno Graf
CV

I work with sculpture, printing, drawing, and installation using reclaimed materials and everyday objects. My research focuses on disused materials and stories, exploring their ecological, historical, and symbolic connections. Through a process that intertwines materiality, gesture, and context, I develop an aesthetic linked to themes such as consumption, presence and absence, and transformation.

I won the First Prize at “Le stanze dell'arte – Premio giovani artisti Genesi creativa” at the M.A.X. Museo di Chiasso (2020) and have exhibited in group exhibitions at Cabaret Voltaire (Zurich), Istituto Svizzero in Rome (2023), Bissone Arte 22 (2022), La Regionale in Ticino (2026), Castelgrande in Bellinzona (2025), and Monte Verità with La Rada (2026).

Consumo Modulare I is a hand-sewn sculpture made of wood and jute. Inside, I installed speakers connected to a turntable and amplifier.

During the open studios, I invited visitors to bring their own vinyl records to play. Some of mine were also available. The sculpture doesn’t change shape, but what happens around and inside it depends on who takes part. It’s a fixed object that temporarily hosts a shared moment—through sound, materials, and the time people spend with it.
