Giovanna Pedrinola is a textile artist and designer, born in São Paulo, Brazil and currently living and working in Miami, Florida.  Her practice bridges the worlds of art and design, blending traditional weaving, pleating, and dyeing techniques with contemporary approaches to create installation pieces and print designs.

Inspired by the organic patterns, textures, and rhythms of nature, Giovanna's work explores the interplay between materiality and space, revealing the tactile connections present in textiles, architecture, and fashion. Whether through immersive installations or intricate prints, she seeks to evoke a sense of harmony between the natural and built worlds. Her work combines tradition and innovation, honoring the craftsmanship of weaving while pushing the boundaries of textile design in modern spaces, one thread at a time.
