Matilde Sambo’s practice unfolds across sculpture, video, printmaking, sound, drawing and performance, investigating the body as a site where memory, evolution and consciousness converge. Anatomical fragments, organic forms and traces generate suspended spaces in which the unresolved and the unfinished become forms of possibility.

Combining an archaeological approach with fieldwork, comparative anatomy and anthropological research, Sambo examines the body as an archive shaped by evolutionary memory, lived experience, learned behaviours and environmental relationships. Her work explores adaptation, perception and transformation, questioning the shifting boundaries between human beings, other living forms and their environments. Her current research also considers the impulse to temporarily relinquish orientation, balance and control, asking what a body may discover when it willingly enters a condition of instability.

Her works bring collective histories into dialogue with intimate experience, evoking identities in the making and bodies that are never entirely fixed.
