As a visual artist, my work is rooted in my cultural heritage and draws inspiration from the Armorial Movement, a Brazilian artistic movement closely connected to woodcut printmaking and popular imagery shaped by regional symbols. My practice spans painting, woodcut, digital art, murals, and tattooing, translating traditional visual elements into a contemporary language.

Human faces are central to my work, representing diversity, collectivity, and different ways of existing and thinking within the same space. Tropical fauna and flora also appear frequently, reflecting the abundance and vitality of tropical nature.

My visual language is bold and expressive, influenced by the aesthetics of woodcut printmaking and the interplay between geometric and organic forms. These elements create compositions that move between structure and fluidity. Much of my work is black and white, exploring contrast, texture, and depth. At times, vibrant yellows, oranges, and reds emerge almost as a sense of heat, energy, and pulse within the composition.
