Filippo Antonello

b. 2002, Lugano, Switzerland

Filippo Antonello (b. 2002) is a Swiss-Italian multidisciplinary artist based in London whose work explores the boundaries between memory and loss, presence and absence. Using bleach and ink on textiles like velvet, denim, and corduroy, he transforms familiar materials into reactive surfaces where images emerge and dissolve through chance and chemical reactions. For Antonello, destruction becomes a mode of revelation, as traces of light and form surface through the breakdown of material, balancing fragility and permanence.
