Emma Masut (b. Palmova, 2001) lives and works in Bologna, IT. She owns a degree in Visual Art at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bologna. In 2025 Masut was awarded the Collezione Falconi Leidi Prize promoted by Fondazione Zucchelli.

Her research moves between the practices of drawing and painting, which in her work take shape as spaces for archiving and developing small obsessions, mysteries, premonitions, and crimes. Her scenes often appear caught in a suspended moment, in which the represented action cannot be clearly situated before or after the beginning, development, or conclusion of an event. Rather than describing a precise sequence, the paintings isolate gestures, figures, and situations whose narrative context remains deliberately unresolved.

Recent solo exhibitions: Duel, Clima, Milan (2026); To Catch a Fly, Ann Mazzotti Gallery, Basel (2025). Recent group exhibitions: Cremona Contemporanea, curated by Rossella Farinotti and organized by Not Titled Yet, Cremona (2026); Il Giardino delle risonanze, Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna, Bologna; Hide and Seek, Gelateria sogni di ghiaccio, Bologna (2025); Per un’idea del colore, curated by Luca Caccioni, Luca Campestri e Olivia Teglia, Casa Saraceni, Bologna; Interferenze, curated by Simona Maria Pagano,Sof:art, Bologna (2024).
