INTIMATE SNAPSHOTS

 

Adriel Visoto (B. 1987, Brazópolis, MG – Brazil) Is a visual artist who uses traditional painting techniques to create contemporary images based solely on personal experience or taken from snapshots which he then sketches and transposes into the canvas. His reduced palette, almost monochromatic in some renderings is utilised as a way to materialize private, confessional, and autobiographical narratives, which creates a unique atmosphere. Whereby he paints in smaller formats, in an attempt to establish a closer and more intimate relationship with the viewer.
