Orfeo Tagiuri (b. 1991, USA) received his MFA from Slade School of Fine Art in 2019. Orfeo’s practice spans from painting and drawing to 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.
