PAM (b. 1990) is a self-taught artist based in Ferrara, Italy. She works as a teacher and spends the rest of her time sculpting and drawing.
Her work combines depictions of monsters, demons, aliens, self-portraits, and imagery from ancient art to create scenes that combat hopelessness with humor. By creating simplified figures, incorporating erotic elements, and using vibrant color palettes, Puck creates a unique symbolic language that’s deceptive in its playfulness.
Her sculptures are equal parts menacing and comforting, and the often comical scenes they depict invite others to become voyeurs as she explores issues related to mental health, sexuality, otherness, and conflicting identities.
Puck has shown her work in the United States and Europe, with shows at Gallery Nucleus, Portland, OR; Wonder Gallery, Rome, Italy; The Others Art Fair, Turin, Italy; Roma Arte in Nuvola, Rome, Italy; Spoke Art, San Francisco, CA; Well Well Projects, Portland, OR; Chinatown Soup, New York, NY; and Autonomni Kulturni Centar, Zagreb, Croatia.

About the FolkArtwork Collective
Not only can you shop original work from this great artist, there’s much more where that came from! It brings me great pleasure to introduce the FolkArtwork Collective — a phenomenal group of self-taught and contemporary emerging artists from across the globe. Jackie Bradshaw, Esteban Whiteside, Sarah Lee, and Noel Hatfield are the first artists to bring original artwork directly to the FolkArtwork web store on both FolkArtwork.art/shop and directly on Instagram. I am very pleased to also add Reneesha Mccoy, Jordan Sullivan, Gabrielle K Brown, Christopher Bame, Max Kuhn, Ben Gardner and in 2024, Melody Jean Moulton, Dinah Hanson-Carrillo, Lindsay Carraway, Kathy Edwards Hayslett, Lorena Eliasen, Mike Combs, and James Ash to the collective. More artists art continuing to join in 2025 including Des Moines own Alexandre Shiffer, Lesley Miserables from London, and contemporary visionary artist Linda DiLeva.
