Giulia Cosenza is a designer and ceramicist hailing from Milan, now based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. With a background that includes experience at Droog in Amsterdam, she has honed her expertise in conceptual design. Since 2015, Cosenza has delved into the art of ceramics, exploring its tactile, physical, and symbolic dimensions. Her ceramic creations are inspired by the familiar and functional aspects of domestic life, yet challenge convention with hybrid pieces that blur the lines between functionality and symbolism. Cosenza views ceramics as more than mere objects; she sees them as ritual tools imbued with cultural significance and tradition. Her practice navigates the delicate balance between functionality and sculpture, transforming pottery into powerful symbols with a tangible material presence.
