biography

I'm a Brazilian artist who has been creating and exhibiting artwork since the 1990s. My work has been shown in galleries and museums across Brazilian many countries, including in Italy, where I studied art.

I was always fascinated by the way art could express ideas in a way that words couldn't. After taking theoretical courses on the history, sociology and psychology of art in Brazil, I was fortunate enough to be able to pursue my dream of studying in Italy, where I honed my skills and learned new techniques that would later inform my work.

In the 1990s, I began exhibiting my artwork in galleries and museums throughout Brazil. My pieces often explored themes of balance and the human condition, using a variety of technics and mediums. I was known for my use of colors and social criticism.

Over the years, I've continued to push the boundaries of what's possible with art, experimenting with new techniques and mediums while staying true to my unique vision, aside from current fads. Today, my work can be found in collections around the world, and I continue to create new pieces that challenge and inspire viewers.

What I love most about being an artist, besides the creative process itself, is the possibility of suggesting new perspectives on old things. There's nothing quite like the feeling of bringing an idea to life, of turning a conversation or an observation into something intriguing and meaningful. For me, that's what art is all about - finding new ways to express ourselves and connect with others through the power of creativity.
