Primavera De Filippi

Primavera De Filippi is an artist and legal scholar at Harvard University, exploring the intersection between art, law and technology, focusing specifically on the legal and political implications of blockchain technology.

Her artistic practice instantiates the key findings of her research in the physical world, creating blockchain-based lifeforms that evolve and reproduce themselves as people feed them with cryptocurrencies.

Her works have been exhibited in various museums, galleries, and art fairs around the world, including Ars Electronica and Francisco Carolinum in Linz, Austria; HEK Museum of Digital Arts in Basel; Kate Vass Gallery in Zurich; Furtherfield Gallery, Gazelli Art House, and Kinetica Art Fair in the UK; Centre Pompidou, Grand Palais, Gaité Lyrique, and Le Cent Quatre in Paris, France; Palazzo Cipolla and Biennale di Venezia in Italy; Fort Mason Center For Arts & Culture in San Francisco; as well as festivals such as Burning Man in Nevada, Fusion Festival in Germany, and Synesthesia in Portugal; and online galleries like Feral File.
