- Elvira SIRIO - Born in Reggio Calabria in 1954.
Graduated in mathematics, she is a teacher first and then a school principal.
Passionate about art since she was a girl, she pursued studies that seemingly led her away from this world, until she finally decided to wholeheartedly embrace her passion.
For many years she attended the “Libera Accademia” of Master Paolo Raffa in her city and at the same time took courses and master’s programs in various parts of Italy. The pivotal meeting with Master Roberto Ferri brought her closer to a painting she had always aspired to.
She then became passionate about sculpture, following Master Mohammad Sazesh in his Carrara studio.
She ultimately trained at the Academy of Art in Florence.
In 2019 she was a signatory in Rome, together with other 12 artists, of the Manifesto dell’Effettismo, a painting movement founded by Master Franco Fragale.
In 2020 she joined the International Academy of Modern Art in Rome.
A versatile artist, never conventional nor repetitive, she rejects any predefined scheme, roaming effortlessly from classical figurative to modern, from abstract to informal, from symbolism to conceptual.
-- By Vittorio Sgarbi --
The task Elvira Sirio has set for herself is to create emotions. The shaping of matter into creatures and subjects of her imagination, with particular attention paid to the female world, leads us to speak of Metamorphosis. With sculpture half woman and half reptile, we face a magical being that heightens the bond between woman and Mother Earth through a serpentine representation that, for cultural reasons now rooted in the common imagination, induces a certain discomfort. The change is linked to the divine (whose heterochromia of the eyes is symbolic) but is perceived as something sinister and little reassuring. Sirio is incredibly current: how is the woman seen today and what powers does she have?
