I am a Brazilian artist who grows up like an artist during the 80'years. That time I lived and studied in Spain where I win an honor mention in sculpture and did a PhD in Arts. Since 1993 I live again in Brazil where I am professor at university and I work especially with painting, sculpture and photography manipulated by digital software and my work has different influences like neo-expressionism in painting or the Brazilian neo-concretism in digital photos, but also I have influences from Freud, Chagal, Basquiat, Chuck Connely, Baselitz, Rauschenberg and Warhol. is proposed in most of my work to discuss the contemporary image reception on the visual means (being on television, internet, advertise boards or on artistic objects) through concept questioning such as perception, identity, passivity, dormancy and mainly between pleasure and repulsion. In a grotesque image, the beauty disguises the improbable, sordid and stupidity. When it is looked at a grotesque image, the pleasure and happiness present themselves at the first moment. Born: Brazil, 1961. Education: Facultad de Bellas Artes /Universidad Complutense de Madrid-Spain , PhD (1992) Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul-UFRGS-Brazil (1986) Media: sculpture, painting, digital print, multimidia, costume, scenography.
