« With my art, I seek to bring some inner discomfort, a feeling, something that the person sees and feels that has something else within. »
Juca Máximo is an internationally awarded Brazilian artist working across painting, sculpture, and immersive installations. His work explores emotional states through gesture, transforming tension, memory, and identity into form.
Rather than following a fixed style, his practice is driven by states of being. Each piece balances delicate lines with dense textures and expressive impasto, creating a language where control and impulse coexist.
His series, including Traces, Absence, and Energy, establish a distinctive visual identity centered on presence and intensity.
Awarded in more than 20 countries and ranked among the world’s top illustrators by Lürzer’s Archive, his work is held in private collections worldwide and featured in Vogue Germany. He is a Singulart Best-Seller, with strong demand among collectors worldwide.
