Orfeo Tagiuri

Orfeo Tagiuri lives and works in London. His multimedia practice spans painting, drawing, performance, film, woodcarving, animation, and music.

Tagiuri’s work intertwines emotion and memory, crafting a vivid montage of love’s fragile dance. Symbols of pain—piercing nails and dripping blood—lay bare the rawness of inner wounds, while delicate flowers and angelic wings evoke a sense of healing, transformation, and rebirth.

He has participated in exhibitions at Palais de Tokyo, Paris (2018); Fiorucci Art Trust’s Volcano Extravaganza (2016); MACRO, Rome (2021); and St Giles (Barbican), London. In 2020, he was nominated for the Bloomberg New Contemporaries award, and in 2023, he published his first book, Little Passing Thoughts.
