With an academic background in cultural and visual anthropology, her artistic practice is deeply informed by research, observation and a strong narrative sensibility. Before becoming known in the world of collage, she has built a long and accomplished career in documentary journalism, producing photographic and illustrated reportage that explores culture, identity and contemporary society. Her multidisciplinary experience shapes a visual language that is both conceptually rigorous and poetically expressive. Her creative process is based on abstract collage/assemblage using antique papers: she weaves memory, places and stories into evocative works, often commissioned by hotels, restaurants or private individuals, alongside covers and editorial illustrations, collaborations with design and fashion brands, and abstract collage courses that she holds at Studio73 of which she is co-founder. From word to image: collage as a form of reportage The Roman artist over the years has transformed the principles of narrative journalism — observation, collection of sources, selection, storytelling — into visual art. In her collages the images are never purely decorative: they are fragments of memory and emotional geographies. Her journalistic and anthropological training is very evident in her art: maps, letters, texts and paper materials such as the pages of old books and magazines, become complex visual narratives in her hands; newspaper headlines, typographic texts, gestural calligraphy often recur as materials in her works, evoking the craft of writing. The collage for Marina Misiti is a way to tell stories without words, but with the same precision and intensity of an investigation or a report. Her path is an example of how the written narrative can evolve into a visual narrative, while maintaining content, ethics, beauty and journalistic sensitivity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/619562993be9ef0312c53a6e/80464ebf-5115-4932-afed-f921dc0f60dc/IMG_1239.jpg About Me In the last two decades her works have been selected, purchased and exhibited in Italy and abroad in galleries, museums, festivals, Italian Cultural Institutes, private collectors and luxury hotels, obtaining recognition and awards. For the Orient-Express, La Minerva Hotel in Rome has recently created an entire collection of abstract collages on the idea of physical and inner travel. She currently works in Rome at Studio73, a creative laboratory of which she is one of the founders. https://www.marinamisitiart.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-06-22 https://www.marinamisitiart.com/collage-masterclass daily 0.75 2026-06-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/619562993be9ef0312c53a6e/1650812007083-AKD36PKIX1TKFSD1KVDT/278706853_10159033419472736_3831870273630254648_n.jpg
