All things, great, small, invisible presents the first solo show by Italian artist Siro Cugusi (b. 1980, IT) at Valerius Gallery.

Siro’s artistic language is a personal reinterpretation of the Surrealist concept of the uncanny, the liminal and metaphysical space where nothing is what it seems. We are catapulted into impossible scenes, halfway between the unconscious and reality. Through these landscapes dominated by illusions and imagination, the artist tries to create a parallel, utopian world, a personal aesthetic and poetic dimension, in works that inevitably clash with the prose of reality. Siro creates an autonomous and personal language — unknown, full of archaic and metaphorical meaning — stilistically alternating between Renaissance and Surrealism, merging the two.

Siro Cugusi is a graduate from the Accademia di Belle Arti in Sassari; he lives and works in Sardinia. Exhibitions include solo shows at Museo Nivola, Orani, IT, (2024), Sarah Brook Gallery, Los Angeles, USA (2024), CookeLatham Gallery, London, UK (2022), Steve Turner Gallery, Los Angeles, US (2020) and group shows at Museo CAMUC, Ulassai, IT (2024), Galleria Annarumma, Napoli, IT (2024), Sperling, Munich, DE (2024), ColeccionSolo, Madrid, ES (2024), Steve Turner, Los Angeles, US (2021).
