Cuca Maciel

Born in Recife/Pernambuco, Cuca spent most part of his childhood in Olinda, a multicultural Brazilian coastal town. Since he was a little boy, he used to develop hand crafts in a creative and original way. The musical rhythms, the mangrove, the colors and shapes that represent the essence of the northeastern roots have always inspired him.

He is graduated in Advertising at the Catholic University of Pernambuco. Since then, in the last 15 years, he has been practicing the profession of advertising with great effort and passion. Later, he joined the Visual Arts course at the Guignard School at UEMG to improve techniques and enhance visual concepts.
