Claudio Campana
Born in 1992, Claudio Campana trained in History of Art at DAMS Bologna, graduating in 2016 before turning his attention to the study of traditional artistic techniques. He specialised in Artistic Moulding at Sermig in Turin in 2019, deepened his practice of scagliola from 2020 under the guidance of Master Mauro Patrini at the European Centre for Restoration in Thiene, and in 2023 further specialised in Production Techniques for Design at the Experimental Ceramic Center in Montelupo Fiorentino. He currently works in Castelfiorentino, near Florence.
Since 2019, Campana has developed a multidisciplinary practice that brings traditional craftsmanship into conversation with contemporary design. While his research spans different artisanal techniques, porcelain holds a central place in his work. Each piece is made through a special casting process using custom-designed moulds, enhanced by 3D-printing technology in the prototyping phase, ensuring consistency in production while preserving the individuality of the design. Rooted in gesture, technique, and an evolving dialogue between handwork and innovation, his practice reflects a precise and quietly experimental approach to making.
