Elisa Cucinelli (she/they) is a French-italian multidisciplinary artist and Filmmaker.
She has a wealth of experience in multimedia production, having worked across the creative and documentary fields, her artistic mission revolves around surprising her audience and guiding them off the beaten path. She accomplishes this by blending mediums, often incorporating hand-drawn animation and stop-motion techniques, with a particular emphasis on vivid colors and textures.
She has continuously evolved as a multimedia artist, with a particular focus on documentary storytelling and experimental visual exploration. Her repertoire spans a wide array of mediums, including projection, stop-motion, and animation. In her documentary work, she focuses onto social subjects, preferring intimate portraits, while in her art and music video projects, she approaches environmental themes in a metaphorical manner. Her unique approach involves using instinctual associations of images and sounds to provoke emotions related to powerlessness in the face of nature's destruction and existential anxiety.
Music has always been a constant presence in her life. She has actively participated in events as a DJ and live visuals artist. Her longstanding dream has been to create a space dedicated to ambient music. She carved out WEICH, a space for interdisciplinary art fostering inclusion and diversity within the local queer art scene.
