Read MoreVincenzo Muratore (b. 1985, Sicily) is a London-based sculptor, poet, and performer whose work explores transformation, fragility, and the tension between visibility and invisibility. He holds an MA in Sculpture from the Royal College of Art, London, and is deeply rooted in his Sicilian heritage, which informs his sense of stratification, ritual, and sacred space.
Muratore works primarily with marble, bronze, leather, and organic materials, combining them with experimental processes such as cyanotype on stone, stitching with thread or brass, 3D modelling, and performative actions. His practice embraces change as its only coherence: each work evolves by contradicting the one before it. The constants in this mutability are void and light, which act as silent centres shaping and revealing.
His projects range from monumental public works—such as HeartH (Carrara marble, 2022) in Sicily and the bronze and marble series Layers for Ballymore in London—to intimate installations like White Wombs (2025), where fragility and light transform absence into presence.
He has realised significant site-specific commissions in Sicily, including Passaggio – Etty Hillesum (Borgo Pizzillo), Creation (to my father) at the Palermo Cathedral, and Skenderbeu in Contessa Entellina, engaging both sacred and civic contexts.
Muratore has exhibited widely in the UK and Italy, and contributes to the British art scene as Lecturer at the University of East London, Technical Instructor in marble at the Royal College of Art, and Lead Artist with Bow Arts.
