Premium Collectors Item

Still Hand made

Hello ;) for this auction I painted a new visions according to my new artistic life reality. Everything changed in my life, I left the pressure of a huge warehouse studio to my new home Studio … after 8 long years of productions for Art galleries, Museums and Catawiki I had to make a decision about what next? … and what next is… is to be free of all extras that I don’t need .. is to be free of traffic jams, fast food restaurants and busy life. Running week after week. This month auctions are my first 100% home production , breathing nature , painting outdoor and learning how to be free again. I got a lung problem , due to 25 years of spray paint and I really need to focus my energy in all the things that make me happy and healthy ;)
I’m addicted to painting , I need to express myself but I don’t know if I will be able to do it for many years more… at least with spray paint .
Graffiti without spray paint is not possible so … I’m trying to understand how can I be true in my art. And this is the most important to me has an artist . This auction is 100% my energy getting restored and it’s also the 180º turn in my life. …

my goal is to sell true art . Hand made and with Human intelligence… Human feelings … I’m totally against AI art and prints. And I will be honest with myself before being honest with Buyers and collectors. My goal is to spread my message of Love, Hope and Unity among Humans.

We are One.

#Last Man Standing (LMS) was born in 2004 when painted him inside an old factory in Lisbon and fast it became one of the Portuguese Street Art icons all around the world with a very powerful meaning and symbolism.

#Brotherhood arrived in 2016 when I connected a lot of “LMS” in the same painting for the first time … I really enjoyed it and started to use in my street art pieces . For me they represent We … all the Humans.

#Pareidolia is a situation in which someone sees a pattern or image of something that does not exist, for example a rabbit in a cloud or a face in a mountain and in this auction some paintings you will feel and see you own “pareidolia “ …. i don’t promise you will see the rabbit ;) its all about feelings
