Domenico Pellegrino

Domenico Pellegrino is a Sicilian artist whose practice transforms traditional festive lights (luminarie) into powerful contemporary sculptures. His work explores Mediterranean identity, mythology, and popular culture through light-based installations and handcrafted wooden forms. Pellegrino’s pieces have been exhibited at the Venice Biennale, Hermès, Dior, and Milan Design Week. His visual language bridges sacred and pop, intimacy and monumentality, always rooted in the symbols of Southern heritage.
