Angelo Filomeno

Angelo Filomeno is an Italian-born, New York-based artist renowned for his intricate embroidery works that combine traditional needlework techniques with dark, fantastical imagery drawn from mortality, desire, and the decorative arts. His large-scale silk thread embroideries on silk charmeuse or linen feature elaborate motifs such as insects, skulls, and floral patterns that evoke both opulence and memento mori traditions. Filomeno's practice challenges the boundaries between fine art and craft, earning him significant critical recognition and a devoted international collector base.
