About
LINDA PAGANI is an interdisciplinary artist whose early photographic work laid the foundation for a career-long inquiry into the sensorial experience of environment. Her images often dwell in the ethereal, capturing the elusive “space between” and transforming architecture into compositions of line and light. In her recent work, Pagani reconstructs built structures, adorning walls with sculptural elements that continue her exploration of emotional connection to space. At the core of her practice lies a sustained interest in the relationship between women and the concept of home.
Influenced by an early exposure to artisanship, Pagani’s process is rooted in traditional materials and techniques. She often works with older technologies—such as analog photography, printmaking, and enameling—and materials like copper, porcelain, and glass, grounding her work in a language of quiet, studied form.
Pagani began her studies in Interior Architecture at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and later completed a four-year Studio Diploma in Fine Arts at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University. She is the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, including the Karsh Prize in Photography and the Museum School’s prestigious Traveling Fellowship. Her work is held in both private and public collections, including Brigham and Women’s Hospital and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
Pagani lives and works in Boston, MA.
