MARGHERITA MURITI
Residents of September 2025
Margherita’s residency is supported by the Institut Français as part of the Nouveau Grand Tour 2025
Margherita Muriti is an Italian artist and teacher based in Paris. She graduated from the École de Gobelins (2017) and holds a Master's in Arts & Ecology from Dartington College of Arts (2023). Her transdisciplinary practice weaves together photography, installation, video, sound, and textiles to explore the sensitive relationships between humans and other living beings, placing attention, reciprocity and interconnection at the heart of her approach. Her current research focuses on olive trees as living archives of the Mediterranean landscape, through acts of dressing and poetic experiments that question the symbolic, agricultural, and ecological dimensions of our connections to these trees.
Her work has been presented internationally in solo and group exhibitions, including Les Temps des Choses (Galerie Plateforme, Paris, 2024), the Biennale de l’Image Tangible (Galerie Plateforme, Paris, 2023), Of this World – Envisioning Alternative Cartographies (Capa Center, Budapest, 2021), Fotofestiwal (Łódź, 2021), Landskrona Foto (Sweden, 2020). She also presented solo exhibitions such as God, How Shall I Pray? (Rencontres Internationales de Niort, 2018) and Le Blanc Nuit (cur.Garance Laporte, VAP, Venice, 2019). In addition to her practice, she has co-organised workshops and performances, and in 2025 collaborated with The Nature of Cities as curator of a round table on the theme Kinship with Trees and Forests (2025).
