“Each of these drawings is fished out from the river of little passing thoughts. I don’t know where they come from but sometimes I take the time to gently scoop them up and set them down. They are a great joy, relief and meditation to make. I hope you can feel that” — Orfeo Tagiuri
Orfeo Tagiuri (b. 1991, Brookline, MA, USA) lives and works in London. Orfeo’s practice spans from painting and drawing to performance, film, woodcarving, animation, and music.
