I’m passionate about textures and inspired by technological, industrial, and sometimes alien scenarios. I also love colors and enjoy experimenting with earth-tones from my calm Amazonian jungle while combining them with fluorescences and vivid urban gradients. This is a unique artwork, only one available, painted and texturized on wood and raw cotton, wood, paper, hot glue, wax, flame torch, pigments. Anything, the sky is the limit!

Artistic canvas 400gsm, with acid free coating, a special semi-glossy resin is applied to the surface, it protects the artwork from dust and UV light.

Hand-signed in the back, the Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is included. It can be installed either vertically or horizontally, with wire and hooks for hanging. This painting is archived and numbered.

The artwork will be shipped in a sturdy wood crate. Packages will leave my studio in 1-3 days, Monday to Friday, during the morning. DHL or UPS transportation services will be used for this.

Grammichele, Italy

Wescover creator since 2023
My mission is to bring mass and rotundity to the flat surface of the canvas.

I was born in the Amazonian city of Belém, Brazil, July 1970. From the year 2000 I live in Italy.
• I paint, sculpt and draw since I was a child, figurative and then changing to abstract art.
• I studied philosophy and industrial design, I am essentially a self-taught artist.
• I work in my green sunny farm-studio in the heart of the amazing Sicilian countryside.
• Fluent speak: English, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian.

ARTIST STATEMENT-
I intimately think that building a visual subject is above all immediacy, I am a pretty rational and pragmatic person consequently I do not place through my art cultural contradictions or philosophical reflections, I’m into the pure visual zone of my work most of the time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In other words I’m just looking for a trice of emotion in the abstract beauty, something that I can read on the fly, and cry and laugh without having to identify myself entirely, that goes beyond me as a creative, or creator, a conceptual entity that can embrace and accumulate a lot of energy on my small painting surface.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s a lot of science references and some sci fi allegories in my artworks rather than only abstract intuition or inspiration, I love the way these fields occasionally coincide in the same space, in a sort of cosmic cooperation.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m just bringing my long time technical skills in over 30 years of experience manipulating materials to create my abstract masks, and I hope the universe will bring everything else, the real thing: the energy, the connection, the supreme intelligence.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This Artist Statement will surely be changed or upgraded in the next future, as every little thing in this existence, every molecule and atom are in a constant move, so am I.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
THE PROCESS-
I paint mainly on canvas, I prefer thick and raw types of cotton tissue. Sometimes I use heavy weight paper or wood board.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I work on 3-5 pieces simultaneously, I don’t do sketches, I don’t consider anything prior, I just prepare the surfaces and the initial textures the day before.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My work needs a hard physical effort and this is a constant pleasure, no chance for boredom or annoyance. Sometimes things won’t go smoothly, so I just let everything as they are and go for a walk and meditation, or perhaps leave and let everything for the other day.
