Elisabetta Porcinai works across sound, poetry, performance, and visual art.
Her research focuses on non-linear narratives, intermedial translatability, and perceptual ambiguity. In her work, poetry plays a central role in shaping texts, graphic scores, and concept books, and extends into her performances, musical compositions, graphic scores, and photographic work.
Graduated from the University of the Arts London and the Universität der Künste Berlin, Elisabetta has taken part in exhibitions and visual and sound installations Europe-wide (Design Transfer, Großer Wasserspeicher, Berlin; MuSA, Pietrasanta) and has performed at institutions such as the Serralves Museum (Porto), Sound Art Lab (Struer), Spazio Contemporanea (Brescia), NUB (Pistoia), Klang (Rome), KM28, 90mil (Berlin), Standards, Casa degli Artisti and Settantaventidue (Milan).
In addition to her individual practice, she is a member of the performance duos Aperture and EPRC. She is currently based in Berlin, Germany.
