Martina Taranto is an Italian designer and artist. Born and raised in Sicily, she’s grown influenced by the intense presence of natural, historical, folkloristic and mystical elements. Martina investigates and tries to envision a world built on a sensible and ethical dimension. Her approach to design is holistic and emerges from a background that goes from philosophy, semiotic, engineering, biology, physics, anthropology. Her work and research gravitates around the necessity to find a compromise and a fluid dialogue between knowledge, human challenges and the environment.
