Tiago Silva Ribeiro is a Portuguese visual artist based in Sintra, exploring the intersection of art, science, and nature. Operating across various artistic mediums, he crafts expressions that encompass video, photography, music, installations, and performances.
From 2007 to 2017, he dedicated his creativity to DubLab, contributing to design and visuals and performing live globally, leaving his mark on music labels, artists, and major electronic music festivals. Starting in 2010, he embarked on a significant eight-year collaboration as the visual artist for the renowned DJ and electronic music producer Loco Dice. Tiago's artistic resonance echoed in entities such as Neo Pop, Time Warp , Sven Väth, Cocoon Recording label, Sónar Barcelona, Dubfire, Chris Liebing, Paul Ritch, Joseph Capriati, among others.
In the transformative year of 2017, Tiago created a series of videos, exploring the microcosm of chemical and physical reactions through super macro lenses, a microscope, and organic materials, captivating audiences at national and international festivals. Answering the call of the NeoPop Festival in 2018, he took on the creation of the stage design and provided live visuals for the anti-stage. This was followed by the presentation of video art and experimental short films at Waking Life, integrating a documentary series merging art and science, revealing the diversity and complexity of organisms through their process of transmutation.
The year 2019 marked the birth of Cloud over Lava, an online platform conceived as the epicenter of collaborative sessions immersed in sound experimentation and the infinite possibilities of artistic expressions. In response to invitations from Elena Vertegel and Maeva Lambert in 2019, Tiago embarked on a unique musical journey, creating compositions for performances such as KingKong Act 5 and "FIXE." In these shows, he explored not only musical form but also the courageous acceptance of the absurd within ordinary sounds, bringing this experience to stages like Teatro Marni in Belgium and JÁFEST at Teatro do Bairro in Lisbon. In 2022, he emerged with "Antimontti," an avant-garde audiovisual piece that blends electronic and experimental cadences. The synthesis involves cassette tapes, field recordings, synthesizers, software, and musical instruments. In the same year, he developed the visual concept and presented live visuals for Joseph Capriati's "Metamorfosi" at Amnesia, Ibiza.
Recently, he programmed his audiovisual software and performed at Time Warp in Mannheim.
