26.5 x 34.2 cm, oil pastel and collage on paper, 2022 - framed
Francisco Mendes Moreira works with repurposed materials and different techniques, mostly oil paint, oil pastels, wood, collage, and paper maché.
He depicts through vivid colors, textures, and unique imagery his vision of the world and how he navigates within it. Influences like western movies have shaped the way the artist perceives and reckons with life’s junctions. Whether figurative or abstract patterns, his works allow the viewer to embark on an adventurous journey, exploring the human condition and immersing oneself in a pictorial cosmos.
