Sofia Bordin (Rome, 1998) lives and works between London and Rome. She recently graduated with an MA in Sculpture from the Slade School of Fine Art in London, after completing her BA in Animation at the London College of Communication in 2020. Rooted primarily in sculpture, installation, and video, her practice collects and interweaves symbols and languages drawn from folkloric traditions and motifs, seeking to define the mechanisms of imagination as devices of healing and resistance. Starting from the ramifications of distant temporalities, spaces of belief, and collective representations of the past, Bordin brings forth imaginative landscapes, intermittent fabulations, and interstitial and contradictory entities that inhabit the peripheral places of reality. In this way, her works take the form of ambiguous structures, delineating contamination zones between the magical and the uncanny.
