Gustavo Dalinha
Gustavo Dalinha’s character is strongly related to the fact that he was born on the frontier between Brazil and Uruguay.
His moving between two regions in the Pampas, and his later wandering around continents have added a wide spectrum of diverse realities to his worldview. Such experiences are innate to one used to crossing borders and adept at exploring the unknown, and that is a defining trait in Dalinha’s style.
The artist’s logic, coherence, and daring experimental power, empower him with a creative spirit, ever daring to experiment mixing elements of nature with advanced technology, creating unique combinations. Dalinha interprets these diverse and dynamic cultural references, ever present in his creations, in a form that expresses his idealistic philosophy of life. His art is a poetic way to materialize these feelings.
“Research and experimentation are the foundation of my work. The eternal search and the effort to understand my inner self, my thoughts, feelings, and my roots, trigger this process in a special way. The sense that life is a struggle within myself widens my horizons and my understanding of things. The work of an artist is in great part a personal evolution, and this has also been my journey. Within my art lies the interchange and dialogue with my fellow human beings.”
