Giulia Pompilij

Giulia Pompilj (1991, Rome) is an Italian-designer-researcher now based in Eindhoven, whose work blurs the line between art, nature and science. She abandoned the predictable to explore plant-based dyes, ecosystem processes and forgotten materials — turning the street-inspired interventions of design into poetic acts of material justice. Her deep dive into Andean textiles, Amazonian fieldwork and urban waste has shaped oversized installations and immersive fabrics that bring colour and story back to places neglected by mass-production. With each project she questions how we value matter, memory and the invisible connections between humans and the natural world. Exhibited internationally, from Milan to New York, her practice reminds us that even a thread dyed in wild plants can carry the voice of resistance and renewal.
