I am a Brazilian who decided to move to New York in 2001. My goal was to build a better life for myself and my family.

​

Today, after many years of ups and downs, I can say that I am in a good place with myself.

I do not see myself as an artist, but rather as someone who enjoys challenging himself. I like trying new things and exploring different ways to express what I believe art can be.

​

I love playing with colors and forms. I enjoy inventing, experimenting with different techniques, and creating things that are not too conventional—or even "normal".

​

Creating something new, even as a hobby, is what I truly love. It is something I do for myself, for my well-being, and for my mental health.

​

I create for myself ... But I share it with you.
