Giorgio Zeno Graf
CV

works with sculpture, printmaking and installation using recycled materials and everyday objects. His research focuses on disused materials, exploring their ecological, historical and symbolic connections. Through a process that intertwines materiality, gesture and context, he develops new collective narratives linked to themes such as consumption, urban occupation and transformation.

He won the First Prize in “Le stanze dell'arte – Premio giovani artisti Genesi creativa” at the M.A.X. Museo di Chiasso (2020), and has exhibited in group exhibitions at Cabaret Voltaire (Zurich), Istituto Svizzero, Rome (2023), Bissone Arte 22 (2022), Spazio Fervida, Lugano (2024), and Castelgrande, Bellinzona (2025).

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.
