Multidisciplinary creator born in the Vale do Rio Doce, in the countryside of Minas Gerais, and living in Belo Horizonte since 2016. I’ve always been drawn to experimenting, blending languages, and crossing knowledge from different fields. My background spans Architecture and Urbanism, Visual Arts, and my current Bachelor’s in Fine Arts. This intersection is at the core of my practice, where I draw, illustrate, research, test materials, and connect references to build images with intention and depth. Throughout my journey, I’ve had the opportunity to co-create on projects ranging from personal artistic explorations to collaborations with brands, artists, and diverse teams — moving between analog and digital processes, institutional and independent contexts. I’m guided by the desire to create visual communication that is sensitive, meaningful, and capable of inspiring connection. I value the exchanges that emerge from these encounters: the dialogue, the shared expectations, and the solutions that gain strength when built collectively. I keep creating from what moves me: memory, affection, culture, and the extraordinary moments of everyday life — always with a touch of the warmth I carry from my homeland.
