Daniele Sigalot (1976) is an artist hailing from Rome, Italy. After working for almost a decade in advertising, Sigalot abruptly quit his job. The dizzy, yet visionary move to Berlin to focus solely on his art proved to be the first act of his successful career, and a hallmark of his style.

Sigalot’s work speaks through a personal artistic language, sometimes joyful, sometimes cynical, often absurd. Thought-provoking through of all its expressions, his work transcends content, scale, and even time.

A unique and rare "media event" in the world of contemporary art that in seven years has imposed Daniele Sigalot (from pages of books to the great wall installations) with his philosophy expressing the feelings of a generation and of an age.

The extraordinary ability of communicating corresponds to a wide linguistic versatility: he uses a lot of materials, often innovative; he tests multiple and interdisciplinary techniques; his installations always have a great impact.

The shaped and homonymous puppets have opposite expressions and contrasting emotions.

He has now become witnesses of a behaviour and, as main characters of stories, he has defined a stylistic attitude reminding Street Style and mass education.

Certainly the mix of their experiences, their prolific techniques (from cardboard to aluminium, from mosaic to video, from drawing to painting) and the relation with a young and trendy culture made Daniele Sigalot an extraordinary aesthetic mirror of our times.

Daniele Sigalot is dreamer of a world where contraddictions and questions stimulate adventures and characters, always linked by a thin red line, the one of surprise and alienation.

Deeply ironical, Sigalot plays with materiality and its context, exploring the ambiguity of our perception. Since his first exhibition in 2006, his 40+ exhibits around the world have seen his oeuvre spanning diverse media such as text, aluminum, neon art, and photography.They have a constant confrontation about communication: verbal, visual, coded, allusive, but always revealing hidden messages combined to real emotions. Notable shows were held at the MOAD, the Milan Triennale, the Royal Palace of Caserta, the Royal Palace of Naples, the Archeological museum in Basilicata, the MAM in Mantova and Palazzo Ducale in Genova.

After 10 years in the German capital, he recently relocated his studio (ironically named "La Pizzeria") to Naples, where he draws inspiration from the Southern Italian city’s beauty and idiosyncrasy.
