9 August 2026 · Lecture 3 min
Florence Sartori’s selection for the 2026 Women in Art Biennale in London marks a major milestone in her artistic career.
Held at the prestigious Chelsea Old Town Hall, this international biennial brings together women artists from around the world united by a common goal: to increase visibility for contemporary female artists and contribute to a more balanced representation of women in the international art scene.
Being selected for such an event goes far beyond the scope of a simple exhibition. It is recognition of a coherent artistic approach, a unique visual language, and a body of work capable of engaging with the challenges of contemporary art.
A selection that recognizes demanding artistic exploration
For several years now, Florence Sartori has been creating sculptures in which the material becomes an extension of human emotions.
Through terracotta and bronze, she constructs a sensitive universe in which each sculpture seeks not so much to represent a subject as to reveal an inner state. The gestures, postures, and tensions of the bodies become a universal language capable of moving the viewer across cultures and borders.
This deeply humanistic dimension naturally explains the Women in Art Biennale’s interest in her work.
International visibility
Each edition of the Women in Art Biennale welcomes artists from numerous countries and attracts an audience of collectors, gallery owners, curators, interior designers, art journalists, and contemporary art enthusiasts.
For Florence Sartori, this selection represents a tremendous opportunity to present her work in an international context where artistic exchanges foster connections, collaborations, and access to new markets.
Beyond the visibility offered by the event, her participation also confirms her work’s ability to resonate with an international audience that appreciates the expressive power of her sculptures.
A work that celebrates inner strength
Florence Sartori’s sculptures delicately explore the themes of resilience, femininity, balance, and transmission. Without ever resorting to an explanatory narrative, they invite each viewer to project their own story onto the work. This universality, combined with a masterful command of sculpting, lends her work a timeless quality that transcends geographical and cultural boundaries. Her selection for the Women in Art Biennale thus appears as the natural continuation of an artistic journey built on high standards, sincerity, and consistency.
The sculpture ‘Jaz in Mama’ is part of the ‘Timeless Love’ series. This series is a tribute to women in motherhood, celebrating their strength, resilience and the profound impact they have on their families and communities. Titled in different languages, the sculptures are all called “Me and Mom”, thus celebrating the bond between a child and its mother that is unique and universal.
‘Jaz in Mama’ (in Slovenian) portrays a tender dialogue between a child and its mother. It is a playful interplay in which balance and closeness blend into a tender embrace. The body’s flexibility and sensitivity are evident, along with its stretching and tension. The sculpture’s clean lines, where the edges interplay with the curves of the form, highlight the emotion of this timeless love.
Recognition that opens up new opportunities
Participating in the Women in Art Biennale marks a new milestone in Florence Sartori’s international career.
This recognition confirms the growing prominence of her work on the contemporary art scene and underscores the relevance of an artistic approach that places emotion, material, and humanity at the heart of her creative process.
In London, her sculptures will be seen by an international audience eager to discover artists whose works are helping to reshape our perspective on contemporary art. This selection is thus much more than simply participating in an exhibition: it affirms the universal reach of the artistic language developed by Florence Sartori.
