ARTIST OF THE MONTH – JANUARY 2022 Winners

Eduardo Valdetaro . Brazil

Lives and works in Registro, Brazil. Visual artist and organic agroforestry farmer. He developed his artistic and farming practices influenced by a sense of belonging in nature and the healing of the soul. Among the forests of Vale do Ribeira he planted his agroforest with over 30,000 varied plant species, creating a new forest home to wildlife.

In the field of art, he has dedicated himself since 2016 to ceramics production, exclusively through the technique of coiling and further experimentations with metal. In his most recent work, he pays tribute to ancient trees destroyed by man for material gain and contemplates the wealth of wisdom lost through this destruction. He also delves into themes of past and future civilizations, outer space and the celestial bodies. In 2021, his works were selected to be part of the book “Transgressões Cerâmicas”, curated by Andrés I. M. Hernández.
