Zoë Starra (also known as Zoë Roiati-Antonucci) is a Canadian Italian independent artist/musician based in Toronto who aspires to create works that incorporate science, ethics, and the abstract. She often prefers working in black and white but her pieces bring forth colourful stories. Musically, she has achieved her level eight in the Royal Conservatory of Music accreditation in Piano and currently has an EP out called “One With The Sound Waves”. Lately, she has been experimenting with kinetic work and has an interest in creating prosthetic prototypes. Zoë believes that it is possible to integrate health sciences and art by creating aesthetically pleasing functioning designs, for example, her “Prosthetic Arm” created in 2018. She plans on completing a post graduate degree in near future as well as releasing more music.
