Adriano Ribeiro

Born in the Amazon, Brazil, and residing in Italy since 2000. A self-taught artist, I've painted, sculpted, and drawn since childhood. My studio, nestled in Sicilian countryside, inspires me. Fluent in English, Portuguese, and Italian.

Artist Statement:
My creative process focuses on immediacy. I avoid cultural contradictions or philosophical musings. Instead, I concentrate on visual elements. Life, nature, family, animals, and my methods inspire me. I blend passion with rationality, irony, gratitude, and reason to interpret reality. My art incorporates science and sci-fi, adding cosmic dimensions. This Artist Statement evolves, mirroring life's constant change.

Awards and Collections:
Honors include the 3rd Place IV SART Rondonya award in Brazil (1997) and the 1st Place “La Fenice” Palermo award in Italy (2001). My work resides in private collections globally and at MUDAC “Museo D’Arte Contemporanea” in Syracuse, Italy.

The Process:
I primarily paint on thick cotton canvas, occasionally using paper or wood boards. I work on 3-5 pieces simultaneously, avoiding sketches, focusing on texture and surface preparation. My work involves physical effort, which I relish. Challenges lead me to step away, meditate, or return another day.

Materials and Tools:
I use canvas, wood, paper, bitumen, gesso, beeswax, fibers, acrylics, oil, UV resin, spray paint, and pastels. My tools include spatulas, brushes, brooms, heat guns, glue guns and more.
