The artist, who was awarded as the second-best in the world in April 2024 and ranked among the top 100 muralists globally in 2024 according to the platform Street Art Cities, represents a new generation of urban artists who balance technique, emotion, and social awareness, using art as an invitation to dream without judgments and explore our inner freedom.

Afonsoul is a Brazilian artist based in Portugal, and he is emerging as one of the most promising talents of his generation. His journey began during the pandemic, driven by a deep need to express himself in a world marked by isolation. Without prior experience in painting, he started his path with digital collages, gradually evolving into drawing and developing a unique style that blends realism with graphic elements — creating works that invite the audience to connect with deep emotions, often suppressed by the demands of everyday life.

Combining technique and sensitivity, Afonsoul's art stands out for its vibrant use of colors and the fusion of natural elements with an aesthetic that confronts the chaos of urban life. Her work, marked by a strong visual identity, explores themes such as introspection, personal growth, and freedom, always carrying messages of hope, resilience, and transformation.

Afonsoul also has a strong commitment to community engagement, operating in public spaces and collaborating with major brands such as the AkzoNobel group and Lexus, as well as institutions like UNESCO. His art has left marks in several European countries — such as Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany — in addition to his home country, Brazil.
