Maria Pizzuti

Maria Pizzuti is from Rome. Her studies have taken her from the University of Rome where she studied medicine, to DIT, Dublin where she received an Advanced Diploma in Fine Art (1^st Hons), to UCD, where she received an MA in Philosophy (1^st Hons). She has completed three years of her Phd. in Philosophy at UCD where she was awarded the Open Postgraduate Scholarship and a Government of Ireland Research Scholarship.

As an artist, she has worked in many different media. A large beaten bronze piece of hers titled “An Croi Briste” is in situ as a famine memorial outside the Jury’s Inn on the Shannon River in Limerick. Her particular interest as an artist and researcher is the relationship between matter, the maker and the made…or how the artist’s choice of material informs the finished artwork.
