Cassandra Zampini is a New York-based new media artist who examines how digital media shapes identity and perception. She transforms internet-mined content into print and video artworks, challenging the ways media constructs reality. By harvesting and recontextualizing vast amounts of digital content, she strips it of its original intent, placing it into physical space to reveal new meaning. Layering, distorting, and aggregating imagery, she exposes fractures in media narratives and the systems of control embedded within them, particularly in the representation of women, consumer culture, self-promotion, and digital manipulation.

Drawing from her own digital experiences, Zampini interrogates the forces that dictate visibility and influence. By materializing digital culture into physical form, she compels viewers to question the mechanisms shaping contemporary identity. Her current research explores how printmaking and digital manipulation can be used in new ways to examine and understand our digital world, particularly through AI-generated aesthetics, social media influence, and the homogenization of digital identity.

Zampini’s work has been exhibited nationally at institutions including the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona; the Arnot Art Museum; the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia; and the Griffin Museum of Photography. She is an invitee for the traveling exhibition A Yellow Rose Project. Her work has been featured in publications such as The Atlantic, The Art Newspaper, and The Collector Daily, and is held in private, public, and corporate collections, including Armoni Investments in Boston and The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
