Marta Luna Valpiana (1991, Verona) is an Italian visual artist based in Milan.
She primarily works with animal-shape sculptures in clay and paintings on silk, incorporating traces of plants and flowers transferred through steam.
Her practice explores fluidity as a dynamic, living relationship across bodies, matter, and the more-than-human. Her works often inhabit a sensual and ethereal space, where softness and slowness become ways of relating to the world.
Post-natural and transfeminist perspectives run through her work, where distinctions between bodies and species become less clear.
She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts from IUAV University of Venice (2016) and continued her studies in Visual Arts for the Digital Age at IED in Milan. In 2021, she completed a second Master’s degree in Futuro Vegetale at the University of Florence, further developing the intersection between her artistic practice and her interest in plant life.
Selected group exhibitions include Noaddress Gallery, ex-officina Rubetelli, Montecchio Emilia, IT (2025); Brasserie Atlas, Brussels, BE (2025); 100Orti, Vicenza, IT (2023); and Oasis2027, Salbker Wasserturm, Germany (2022). Her international residencies include VIR Viafarini-in-residence, Milan (2024); Savvaļa, Latvia, LV (2023); and LIOS Lab, Poland (2022).
