Allegra Esclapon de Villeneuve was born in Vienna in 1996, and grew up in Florence, Italy. Since a young age she always had the passion for art, and trained in a small academy in Florence before her studies to learn techniques such as prints, sculpture and oil paint.
She moved to London from 2014 to 2018 for her studies in Costume Design for Theatre and Screen, at Wimbledon College of Art (UAL). After various experiences as a costume designer she moved to Barcelona and completed a Master degree in Art and Cultural Management. In 2020 she moved back to Florence until 2022 and worked in a ceramics studio, focusing on tile production, vases and sculpture.
Today she is based in Madrid where she focuses on sculpture, working with various mediums such as metal, glass and ceramics.
The abstraction of the human body, organic shapes and experimenting with movement continue to inspire her, reflected within her current work. Founded on a sensation of freedom, growth and liberation, her artwork strives to deliver these emotions to each of her viewers.
