Camila Pinheiro is a Brazilian visual artist whose work bridges contemporary art exhibitions and international commissions.
Statement
My practice is grounded in a distinctive visual language. I engage with modernism and with the graphic tradition that understands art and design as interconnected fields.
I explore rhythm, repetition and colour as structural elements. Nature, the body in motion and patterned forms emerge as variations within the same formal inquiry.
I move between painting, poster design and cross-disciplinary commissions, understanding these shifts as integral to the development and circulation of my language.
I aim to create images that are clear and iconic , structured and capable of inhabiting both the exhibition space and contemporary visual culture.
