SIIGII

Artsted Catalogue, 2023 Edition.

SiiGii (see-jee) is a genderqueer Spanish artist based in

NYC. Intertwining mediums of sculpture and fashion, SiiGii’s

work confronts the limits of the body and the endlessness

of energy. An extensive background in fashion

design, tailoring, and millinery allows SiiGii a unique

perspective and approach to sculpture.

They treat the body as yet another garment that the soul

is forced to wear, and craves to be free from. This translates

into a sculptural choreography—a still, mindful performance

that each piece expresses through posture and

presence. SiiGii’s art speaks in concept, always driven by

a specific healing intention and universal message: “My

art practice is where I have the power to own my stories

and create positive transformation. During the process

of creation, I’m in an almost meditative state in which

something that lives in my head gets born through my

hands. It goes far beyond making something to look at. I

am healing myself and my audience.”
