Kiri-Una Brito Meumann addresses sculpture as a condition rather than as an object. Born in Australia, of Brazilian descent, and currently based in Milan, she predominantly creates sculpture but maintains an active drawing practice, consistently informed by sculptural thinking. Her process allows form to arise from the inherent behaviours of the material, responding directly to physical constraints and environmental circumstances.
Her practice is deeply rooted in materials sourced intuitively from locations of personal resonance, reflecting cultural upbringing and lived environments. Rather than centring identity, these materials activate dialogues that transcend personal narrative, orienting toward experiences that unfold beyond language, where material presence and perception intersect in ways that resist full articulation. Brito Meumann’s practice exists in a continuous process of redefinition, where form, gesture, and environment remain in dialogue.
