About

Silvia Di Pasquale was born in Sicily in 1986, where her journey as a sculptor commenced.

Her artistic pursuit began with the study of Art and Sculpture, setting the foundation for her future endeavors. In 2004, she relocated to Tuscany, where she embarked on an academic journey culminating in a master’s degree in Art History, achieved in 2011. Afterwards she launched her professional career as a junior Sculpture Artist, collaborating with agencies throughout Italy.

Soon thereafter, she ventured into the world of 3D digital sculpture. From 2013 to 2017 she held the role of a Digital Artist and 3D Character Designer, contributing to various 3D printing and virtual reality companies situated in northern Italy.

In 2018 she established her own Sculpture Atelier near Como, operating as a freelance sculptor in both manual and digital sculpting techniques. Her primary collaborative partnership finds its locus in Perseo Artfoundry, located in Mendrisio, Switzerland, where she models sculptures manually or digitally. In tandem with the sculpting practice, she has assumed the role of an educator, sharing her expertise in figurative sculpture with aspiring artists.

In 2019, she had the inaugural solo exhibition in Turin, Italy, titled “Una crepa sul viso“, featured component of the “Premio letterario Enrico Furlini” event, which transpired on November 16th, 2019.

More recently, in 2022 and 2023, she collaborated with the distinguished artist Alexander Klingspor, contributing her talents as a 3D sculptor during various phases of the creation of the monumental masterpiece known as “NYC-legend“. This awe-inspiring sculpture was ceremoniously installed in Union Square, New York City, on October 17th, 2023, and it will remain on exhibition until June 2024 (3d view here and full description of my work here).

She focuses her artwork on figurative subjects in constant dialogue with their own substance, mainly following three series of artworks: “Deep Into“, “Unveiling” and “Human Fragments“.
