Strongly influenced by a personal photo reportage experience during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict between 2014 and 2015, Ciregia explores the dark side of human nature using different media: photography, sculpture, installation and performance. His approach is as diagnostic as it is meticulous and develops with particular attention to the inherent characteristics of the materials with the aim of reworking and transfiguring reality into an introspective experience.
His works have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Italy and abroad, including New York, London, Paris, Wales, Rome, Milan, Amsterdam.
