Sofia Taipa is a multidisciplinary artist and eclectic maker originally from Lisbon, now based in London. With a dual background that bridges Arts and Computer Science, Sofia’s work explores and questions the role of technology in contemporary art, as well as its intersection with materiality. Through sculpture and installation, she probes the phenomenology of the body, sound, light, and space as tangible entities, while using computational tools to craft process-oriented experiences. Her practice is driven by a curiosity on the nature of perception and the ways in which identity is formed and experienced. Sofia’s current practice-based research investigates themes of collective identity, the process of individuation, and the sensory experience, seeking to uncover how these concepts manifest in both the physical and digital domains.

After studying simultaneously Multimedia Art and Computer Science, Sofia moved to London in 2022 to pursue a Master’s in Computational Arts at Goldsmiths. Since then she has participated in numerous exhibitions, including the V&A Digital Design Weekend, and has co-founded the _threadsafe artist collective.
