2023 – Sacred Skins
Bridging Heritage and Spirituality
In tribute to my late father’s Brazilian gaucho roots, the Sacred Skins series transforms animal hides into profound canvases for exploring spirituality, home, and belonging.
Each relief sculpture carries layered meaning — from the material symbolism of the Golden Calf to the healing metaphor of the Bronze Serpent. Textures rise and fall, evoking weathered leather, sacred ritual, and ancestral memory.
I invite the viewer on a visual and introspective journey — one that transcends culture and reveals our shared humanity within the vast tapestry of existence.
