Lúcio Tamino
Brazil - 1982
From an early age, Lúcio Tamino learned and practiced various traditional visual arts techniques, particularly painting, as a self-taught artist influenced by his father and grandfather, the renowned artists Gregório and Mário Gruber. By 1999, he began his professional artistic career, assisting in Gregório’s studio and supporting his painting courses.
Tamino has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions and played a role in organizing exhibitions dedicated to Mário Gruber’s works. His art often reflects a close connection with nature and autonomous, wild food practices, engaging in direct and practical study of natural sciences. He has served as a facilitator and speaker at various agroecology events and seed and seedling exchange gatherings, where he also showcased his work. Additionally, he has taught courses on art, planting, and gastronomy.
Tamino has created protest artworks using collected election posters and billboards. His artistic repertoire extends to photography, video production, editing, treatment, and manipulation of images, as well as digital art.
