Laura Sottosanti
Founder, Director

Laura Sottosanti is an architect, artist, gallerist, and certified coach.
After graduating in Sustainable Architecture from the Polytechnic University of Turin, she began her career in Hamburg, working on emergency housing projects for refugees — an experience that shaped her deeply human approach to creativity.

Since 2018, she has been based in Barcelona, where she joined the international studio Miralles Tagliabue – EMBT. Alongside her professional work, she has continued to develop her artistic research, influenced by her travels across Europe, South America, the United States, the Middle East, and India.

In 2021, she founded Arteria Art Gallery, now recognized for its curatorship dedicated to emerging talent, especially women artists. In 2025, she was awarded the Premio Amore e Colore and Premio Mu.Ro at The Others Art Fair.

As an artist, Laura explores energetic, instinctive, and material abstraction.
Her most recent series, We Buy Our Own Flowers Now, celebrates female autonomy and rebirth.

As a certified Life & Business Coach (A.Co.I.), Laura supports women and creative professionals in reclaiming direction, confidence, and identity — integrating vision, mindset, and strategy.
