Fulvia Monguzzi

18.10.2025

Fulvia Monguzzi (Italy, 1985), known as Miss Goffetown, is an Italian artist based in Milan and trained at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera.

Her work, ranging from collage to acrylics, stands out for its ironic yet dramatic approach, exploring themes such as love, sensuality, and everyday life with a sensitive and poetic visual language. Serious yet playful, always curious about the world around her, Fulvia paints scenes in which we can all see ourselves. The absence of facial details emphasizes empathy and invites the viewer to fully immerse themselves in her subjects. An intimate and attentive gaze, capable of capturing every aspect of reality, reassembles in Miss Goffetown’s work new systems of relationships between people, places, and objects.

In Miss Goffetown’s research there is clearly a kind of provisional nature inherent in the practice of painting. Her incessant production of drawings throughout her days, which she herself describes as a daily “prayer,” carries the air of being thrown down somewhat casually, as an attempt, a series of acrylic paintings that seem unfinished or that cancel themselves out through a mark that resembles felt-tip pens more than brushes, as if the artist were distancing herself from painting in favor of something that constantly seems to be on the verge of incoherence or collapse.
