Marta Di Francesco is a London-based artist merging poetics with code, working across video, text, and installation.
The poetics in her practice refers to an existential and critical approach exploring the human condition in a machine-mediated reality.

She reclaims agency in temporality, slowness, and time consciousness as forms of resistance in an era of speed, acceleration and distraction. 
Through a time intensive and meticulous process which is generative as much as digitally hand painted frame by frame, she examines identity and its fragmentation. through video processing, bleed and temporal displacement in volumetric aesthetics and generative glitch.
Her work often draws from literary and poetic texts, as well as revisiting mythology and cultural histories.

Her work has been widely exhibited and screened internationally.
