A Serious Contender To Take Up My Wall Space
I have started doing a lot of research on Brazilian street artists recently since I basically only have one large wall to display art in my new place in São Paulo, and I want to make sure I use it wisely. Obviously most of the artwork I like is completely out of my price range, but still it can be appreciated.
Right now Wagner Pinto is on my list of artists worth saving for, and not just because he was brought up in Porto Alegre in the south of the country like me. His work is largely inspired by candomblé, indigenous elements, religious costumes and rituals, and folklore, and I love how vibrant and clean it looks. Make sure to check out more on his website.
