Aurora Mesot [she/her] is a multidisciplinary artist based in Geneva, Switzerland. 
Her work explores socio-political themes through movement, storytelling, and a wide spectrum of media, including writing, editorial photography, and fine art. Grounded in a sociological approach, she develops nuanced narratives that interrogate human connection and shifting cultural perspectives.

She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Visual Communication (2023) and a Master’s in Space and Communication (2025) from the Haute École d’Art et de Design de Genève (HEAD). Aurora currently works independently as a multidisciplinary artist.
