Photographer and painter, he mostly works with the notions of route and metalanguage. In his photographs, he seeks to theatricalize the viewer-artwork relationship through pictures taken inside the most frequented museums in Brazil and abroad. He composes the pictures so as to integrate the visitors’ figures as much as possible with the plastic and visual elements of the displayed works. He often makes use of the flash to produce masses of colors in reproductions in which the photographer’s presence in the settings is seen or hinted at in reflections and shadows. He also theatricalizes his own self in the figure of the tourist or flâneur, the loner who observes the crowd from within it. He has also done parallel work as a producer and editor of documentary films shot in the states of Espírito Santo and Pará, including Brilhantino, directed by Ériton Bercaço, about a 71 year-old man who lives in a cave. In 1999 he became a painting and video professor at the Arts course of the Federal University of Espírito Santo, where he also earned a teaching license in Arts Education in 1984. He specialized in History and Cultural Assets at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro; at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, he completed a specialization course in History and Architecture in Brazil and a master’s degree in History of Culture.
