︎
Visual artist, concept artist and graphic designer. Her works are multimedia projects developed through graphics, painting, photos, videos, multimedia installations and interactive performances, whereby the viewer is involved in a synesthetic and psycho-emotional interaction. Her current research focuses on the concept of imitation and participation as forms of semiotic learning and sharing understood as constructions of places. In the last ten years her attention turned to the role of the sign, to its universal value in the auto-affirmation of the self and its tangible existence in an increasingly impalpable reality. She has recently analyzed the link between sign, body and alphabet as elements concurrring to the formation of a complex communication. Contino is currently Head of the School of Artistic Design for the company and professor of Graphic Design and Digital Applications for the visual arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. Since 1998 she has exhibited her works in Italy and abroad. In 2013 and 2015 she held conferences on the body and performance at the DAMS in Bologna.
