Jasmine Pradissitto turns scientific research into materially ambitious art, showing that environmental innovation can deepen beauty, meaning and possibility.
Artist in One Sentence
Jasmine Pradissitto is a British contemporary artist whose sculptures and paintings bring art, science and environmental innovation together, including works made with NOXORB™, a material that absorbs harmful nitrogen dioxide pollution from the air.
Artist Profile
Jasmine Pradissitto has developed an interdisciplinary practice in which material is never merely a support for an idea: it is part of the idea itself. Moving between sculpture, painting and installation, she draws on scientific research to make works that are visually assertive, intellectually open and rooted in the environmental conditions of contemporary life.
Her best-known material innovation is NOXORB™, a pollution-absorbing ceramic material capable of removing nitrogen dioxide from the surrounding air. Pradissitto uses it to extend sculpture beyond representation. The work occupies space, carries aesthetic and conceptual meaning, and can also participate directly in the environment around it. The claim is specific: NOXORB™ absorbs pollution; it should not be described as captured carbon.
This union of science and art is handled with imagination rather than technical display. Energetic surfaces, organic forms and shifts between solidity and lightness allow complex research to remain sensorial. The material story rewards closer enquiry, but each work must first succeed as art—beautiful, resolved and capable of holding attention independently of its environmental credentials.
Gallery Les Bois represents Pradissitto because her practice demonstrates how conceptual rigour and material innovation can strengthen one another. Her work proposes that environmental responsibility need not narrow artistic possibility; it can create new formal languages. For collectors, that combination offers lasting relevance: an artwork with distinctive presence, a traceable material proposition and a strong place within current conversations about science, ecology and cultural value.
Sustainability & Practice
Sustainability is embedded in Pradissitto’s methodology. Her long-term research into NOXORB™ asks what an artwork might do as well as what it might represent. By integrating a nitrogen-dioxide-absorbing material into sculpture, she treats environmental innovation as an active component of form, surface and meaning.
Her wider practice explores biomimicry, responsible material development and the relationship between human invention and natural systems. This is not sustainability applied as a label after completion; it shapes the questions, collaborations and choices from which the work emerges. The result is an optimistic yet exacting practice in which scientific curiosity supports artistic quality.
