The artwork

MICROBO – ONIRI

Oniri is a unique artwork by the Street artist Microbo, an internationally renowned female street artist and pioneer of the movement.

The piece is created using a mixed media technique on wood. Against a black background that blends with the frame – an integral part of the artwork – artist Microbo depicts a creature from her microcosm with a headdress composed of various round, blue elements and a slender body.

The subject rests on a collection of intertwined filaments that symbolize elements seen in her works. Microbo incorporates terms in ancient Greek: Hypnos, the God of Sleep, and his three sons – Morpheus, Phobetor, Phantasos – collectively known as Oniri, as indicated by the title of the artwork.

The subject and depicted elements are immersed in a dreamlike atmosphere, similar to the one Microbo and Bo130 recreated in the Expanded FunToMentalism exhibition held at the Wunderkammern venue in Milan in February 2023.

In this artwork measuring 39 x 38 x 2.5 cm, the black frame is an integral part of the piece.

MICROBO

Microbo, the pseudonym of an Italian artist born in Catania in 1970, is recognised as one of the few female pioneers of international street art. She currently lives and works in Milan, calling herself a ‘citizen of planet Earth and microbe of the universe’.

Training and Career Start

Her artistic training began within the historical editorial staff of ‘Lapis’, a publication that contributed to the cultural rebirth of Catania in the early 1990s. Later, she moved to London, where she met the artist Bo130. Together, they formed an artistic and sentimental partnership that continues to this day.

Return to Italy and Contribution to Street Art

In 2000, Microbo and Bo130 returned to Italy, settling in Milan. Here, they became reference points for the new underground current of Street Art worldwide. Microbo was also a member of the Italian art collective SunWuKung, which is known for its performances throughout Italy and has also received recognition in Europe.

Curatorship and Significant Events

Starting in 2002, together with Bo130, Microbo curated the first urban art events in Italy, bringing together different generations of graffiti writers in group exhibitions. Among these events are ‘Arteimpropria’ in 2003 and the ‘Urban Edge Show’ in 2005, considered key moments in the history of international street art.

Art Style and Themes

Microbo's art is deeply influenced by the microcosm. He uses an ancestral organic alphabet composed of creatures and filaments floating in a timeless space, evoking the dawn of life and the interconnectedness of all things. His works, made with different techniques and materials, tell stories, myths and legends that invite the viewer to reflect on their soul.

Relevant Exhibitions and Publications

Microbo has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in unconventional venues and prestigious international museums. Notable exhibitions include:

‘Nusign 2.4’ (2004) at the ArtCore Space in Paris, one of the first Street Art exhibitions in Europe.

‘Wooster on Spring’ (2006) in New York, organised by the founders of the “Wooster Collective”.

‘Cross The Streets’ (2017) at the MACRO in Rome.

His works can be found in private and public art collections in Europe and the USA. In 2005, together with Bo130 and Matteo Donini, he published ‘Izastikup’, a collection dedicated to sticker culture.

Microbo continues to influence the contemporary art scene with his unique vision and commitment to the promotion of Street Art as a legitimate and meaningful art form.
