Adriano Machado
Adriano Machado is a, visual artist, invented in the portal of the Bahia hinterland. I believe that voices, colors and sounds should mix to invent images, and that they can be elements of transforming powers, even if slow. He works with social geography, the bodies that invent territory through their use; I investigate death, its systems as life poetics, in more detail, how Brazilian Afro-diasporic bodies are inserted in this process. In my artistic process I seek possibilities of creation in contemporary art through photography and 'graphic thinking'. I develop artistic projects looking for possibilities in photography to broaden voices and understandings about identity, territory, fiction and memory. With works that point to questions of the condition of man between living spaces and inventive Afro-Brazilian territories. Master student in Visual Arts from the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil.
