Filippo Muzi Falconi (Poposh Rupestre) is an Italian artist based in London, working primarily in sculpture and design. His artwork aims to re-enchant our understanding of the natural world, blending contemporary biology, material exploration and archaic narratives and aesthetics. At the heart of his practice is the idea of reintroducing a spiritual dimension to our life, one that is not centred on humans but sees us as part of a larger ecosystem.
His practice is rooted in exploration, materiality, and making. He works primarily with materials he forages himself, from wood to wild clay and natural pigments, gathered during expeditions into different landscapes. In this sense, his artworks are direct responses to the environments he explores.
For him, making is a way of forming a closer, more intimate relationship with the world around him. Working with foraged materials is also a way of reclaiming autonomy from globalised supply chains, a quiet political gesture that places him on equal footing with the natural world.
Filippo holds a background in social and environmental psychology from the London School of Economics and trained as a woodworker in Japan. His work has been featured in Dezeen, Scura magazine, the Italian national daily La Nazione, and he was shortlisted for the Wood Awards 2026.
He is open to commissions, from bespoke furniture to sculpture, and enjoys developing each piece in close dialogue with the client. Please get in touch to start a conversation about your project.
