BIO
Born in 1958 in Seattle, Washington, Timothy Siciliano began his art career in New York City in 1982, gaining recognition for surreal graphic drawings and “live drawing” performances with partner Payton Wilkinson at seminal downtown venues including Club 57, The Mudd Club, and Just Above Midtown; this work was later featured in MoMA’s 2018 CLUB 57 retrospective. After returning to Seattle in the late 1980s following Wilkinson’s death from AIDS, Siciliano shifted to non-performance work, creating intricately drawn, illuminated paper shrines that earned an NEA fellowship in 1992 and culminated in the installation The Garden of Virtue and Vice at the Center on Contemporary Art, Seattle. Following a decade-long hiatus, he reemerged with painting and drawing projects such as Dongguan Highways Hot Pink (2010) and Donna Summer in Syria (2013), addressing environmental, political, and cultural tensions, and later presented his largest solo exhibition, Slouching Towards Possible Enlightenment (2021). His multidisciplinary practice explores sexuality, power, nature, war, and duality, informed by influences ranging from Richard Lindner and Niki de Saint Phalle to Jean Genet and Haruki Murakami. Currently based between Seattle and Mexico City, Siciliano has collaborated with master printer Daniel Flores in Oaxaca on etched and silkscreened prints included in the current 2025 exhibition, The Lunch Before the Détente at studio e. His work is currently shown at studio e and represented by El Tingolado Gráfico.
