Orfeo Tagiuri

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

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