Andre Azevedo

Images slightly obscure and imperfectly shaped portray memories, thoughts of own or anonymous as if they could be observed in the landscape.

"I investigate the process of remembering and forgetting, recurring dreams, optical phenomena and nature's uniformity. I am moved by the curiosity around the fact that human sight is only capable of observing one interpretation at a time; I try to remember emotions felt in times passed portraying them in unfinished manner, as if they were an organism in development."

Andre Azevedo was born and works in Curitiba, Brazil. A self-taught artist, He utilizes in his work the combination of different materials and techniques like drawing, painting, photography and sewing. The construction of his pieces, creates images which suggest ambiguous perceptions which reveal something between the interior and exterior. Andre's work has caught the attention of important brands, like Alfa Romeo, Lacoste, Ermenegildo Zegna; and publications like Twill Magazine and Taschen's Illustration Now! Vol. 4 - all of which have commissioned his work.
