Cori Cannavino is an artist working in digital media. Her work is informed by Dora Kalff's research in the development of Sandspiel, or Sand Play, a Jungian methodology utilizing sand, water, and living archetypes; represented by figurines and miniatures. Kalff argues that materials and their chosen arrangements are imbued with psychic matter, a belief inherent to ritual composition. Cori recently completed research in Naples, Italy on precipios, or cribs, experimental Nativity scenes which archive the figures and customs of the Neapolitan cultural imagination.
