Chiara Pitrola
Chiara (she/they) is an artist and researcher from Italy, who works in the cultural field for festivals and art residencies. She’s concerned with art, ecology, and transfeminisms with a special interest in body-related practices and community building. She supports regenerative approaches and holistic takes towards the environment, and she loves DIY, peer to peer learning, watercolours, and spontaneous hangouts. Chiara easily goes from recharging her batteries by reading and meditating in the woods to a techno event.
Chiara is part of a transfeminist book club, and has a weakness for plants, herbalism, poetry read aloud, and experimental electronic music. In her free time she creates her own rituals to slow down and meditate, because she believes rest and sacredness are personal and political matters of care.
Chiara works as a host at Exhale on Saturdays.
