Fabian Albertini

1965, Montecchio Emilia, Italy 

 

Fabian Albertini is an Italian-Brazilian artist living and working between Reggio Emilia and Rio de Janeiro. She began her career by creating photographic performances with contemporary dancers, exploring movement, presence, and the body’s relationship with space and environment.

Her multidisciplinary practice spans photography, painting, sculpture, and installation, engaging deeply with themes of nature, spirituality, and the human relationship with the environment. Albertini’s work explores the transformation of nature across deep geological and human historical time, often addressing urgent ecological concerns. A significant aspect of her process involves immersive fieldwork in remote locations with strong geophysical identities—such deserts, forests, and volcanoes.

Through a conceptual and material investigation, Albertini interrogates how we perceive, represent, and interact with the natural world. Her artistic practice invites critical reflection on cultural traditions and encourages a reevaluation of the human-nature connection in the face of environmental crisis.
