Adriano Ribeiro was born and raised in the Amazonian city of Belém, Brazil, grew up immersed in the raw, vibrant energy of the jungle. Relocating to Italy in 2000, the artist has since lived and worked amid the sun-drenched Sicilian countryside. Creation has been a constant companion since early childhood, beginning with figurative explorations before fully embracing the pure abstraction that defines the current practice.

While influences include studies in philosophy and industrial design (with echoes from the Escola de Belas Artes, EBA in Salvador, Bahia), the approach remains fundamentally self-taught, driven by intuition and relentless experimentation.

Recognition has followed this distinctive path through several international awards and grants, notably 3rd Place at the IV SART Rondônia Award in Brazil (1997) and 1st Place at the "La Fenice" International Art Prize in Palermo, Sicily, Italy (2001), alongside other accolades in Brazil. A selected work now resides in the permanent collection of the MUDAC, Museo D’Arte Contemporanea in Syracuse, Italy.

Pieces have found homes with collectors across more than 30 countries, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, and beyond, underscoring the wide-reaching appeal of this vision.

Rooted in these contrasting worlds, the painting centers on texture, layers, and unfiltered instinct. It draws from a primal, untamed force that continues to throb between the jungle's fierce survivalism and the scientific inquiries that fuel ongoing inspiration.

The enduring pursuit is to weave these opposing realms into cohesive two-dimensional forms on canvas.

"I paint layer by layer, burying what came before to find deeper freedom: accidents reveal themselves as allies, and wonder keeps emerging not against the wild disorder, but woven right into it, ever more luminous".
