« 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 acclaimed and award-winning Brazilian visual artist, sculptor, designer, and illustrator, recognized in more than twenty countries. Guided by Nietzsche, Freud, and Jung, his practice explores the intersection between emotion, gesture, and philosophy, merging figurative expressionism, symbolic portraiture, and minimal abstraction. Each work translates psychological tension into movement, revealing memory, identity, and the invisible architecture of feeling. His signature series Traces, Absence, and Energy establish a language where fragility becomes strength and silence becomes presence. He has exhibited globally, including the Venice Biennale of Architecture and Madison Square Garden, and is a former Singulart Best-Seller with strong collector demand worldwide.
