De Luca's multidisciplinary practice interweaves sculpture, video and performance to investigate relations between body, organic matter and the sacred. The installation unfolds as a staged archive, addressing endurance and spiritual traces within contemporary art. Trained at the Accademia Teatro alla Scala in Milan, the artist has participated in prominent international events and received notable awards in 2025-2026.
