Nature ReBirth
In his latest series of canvas paintings, Iuri invites us on a profound and introspective journey where nature and the soul intertwine. Titled "Nature. ReBirth," this collection is a deep dive into the wonders of organic movements found in nature and the richness of emotions that reside at the heart of the artist.
Through meticulous technique, each artwork is a testament to Iuri's patience and dedication. Each canvas requires approximately 3 to 4 days of work, with necessary intervals for layers to dry, totaling a period of 12 to 24 hours. This process represents a profound shift from Iuri's roots as a tattoo artist, compelling him to redefine his artistic expression as a new beginning, a journey that unveils a fresh way of seeing the world.
Iuri employs the technique of watercolor washes to explore organic movements, transitions, and passages allowed by this unique method. The result is subjective and subtle compositions that stimulate the viewer's imagination, inviting them to interpret the intricate and natural forms in the same way that the fluidity of water and clouds create images that awaken deep emotions.
A distinctive element in Iuri's paintings is the use of a golden thread that accentuates organic shapes and the boundaries between colors. This golden thread creates an illuminated path for the viewer, guiding them to explore their own emotions and the complex interplay of shapes and colors. Thus, much like the artist, viewers are invited to feel the movements, forms, and colors, in pursuit of serenity and peace, fundamental feelings present in the series "Nature. ReBirth."
Through his art, Iuri leads us into a visual meditation, connecting us with the beauty of organic movements, the delicacy of colors, and the serenity that resides within each of us. His work is a testament to personal growth and artistic exploration, offering viewers a path to inner reflection and contemplation, an invitation to get lost in the depths of nature and the soul itself.
Flow
60x80 - acrylic on canvas - framed
In this artwork, one of the artist's early creations, Iuri seeks to explore the movements of water and the contrasts between forms. The choice of blue and green tones alludes to the contrast between the sea and the land, intertwining and dancing with each other, with lighter and darker shades reminding us of the depths and complexities of nature itself. Along the boundaries of the forms, a golden line follows, exalting and glorifying the borders, a vein of gold amidst the beauties of the forms.

Ocean Tides
80x80 - acrylic on canvas - framed
In this artwork, the artist seeks to express the movements of the tides, the ebb and flow of the waters.
By using a square canvas and painting vertically, Iuri aims to utilize textured negative spaces to create the sensation of foam. With blue lines and tones reminiscent of the sea, the artist seeks to convey the feeling one has when observing the tides. The ebb and flow of the waters that leave marks and erase footprints in the sand are also represented, with veins of gold crossing the painting, exalting the border of the waves, the boundary between water and land.

Beira Mar
80x120 - acrylic on canvas - framed
This artwork, measuring 80x120, is part of a series of large canvases where Iuri continues to explore the movements of the seas and clouds, inspired by the beaches the artist grew up visiting. With deep blue tones that evoke the various waters of the ocean, Iuri explores a lateralized path on the canvas here, a path that exalts the horizontality of the boundaries between the dark and the light, creating division but generating harmony and beauty. Just like the waters themselves, always displaying their duality between strength and subtlety, the deep and the shallow, this canvas reflects the dualities of the world and the artist himself, expressed through blue and "beachy" tones. And, of course, with the characteristic golden line on his canvases, marking the boundaries between the darker and lighter tones, like a boundary to the unknown.

Neblina aos campos
80x120 - acrylic on canvas - with frame
Continuing to work with the concept of boundaries and natural waters, here the artist departs from the classic representation of blue water with more natural, earthy, and organic tones. Iuri seeks to express his more static feelings while also aiming for a transition from the more deliberate to the lighter, guiding the viewer through a path of subtleties to a heavier conclusion. Iuri introduces the idea of paths and journeys. Greenish and warmer tones convey the idea of renewal and comfort. This painting, while generating a sense of warm comfort, also carries the impulse for change and renewal. Transmutation

80x80 – acrylic on canvas - framed
Continuing in his quest to express his deepest feelings associated with the sea, in this artwork, Iuri introduces a sense of dynamism, exploring the aggressiveness of the sea with splashes and layers upon layers, resulting in a more dynamic and intriguing painting.
Using vertical dynamism on a square canvas, Iuri breaks away from the common sense of the canvas and creates a sense of discomfort for the viewer, coupled with the blue tones that evoke depth, much like the dynamism of the painting itself. We witness a profound expression of his emotions and internal conflicts, a whirlwind of emotions that, like breaking waves, generate chaos, yet still maintain a harmonious and intriguing composition.

Stream
80x80 - acrylic on canvas - framed
In this artwork, the artist takes a much subtler approach compared to the others in this series. Shades of blue and gray, deep and unsettling, create a sense of restlessness for the viewer, with the need to uncover the profound and obscure. Here, Iuri seeks to explore his inner depths, diving deep into his internal sea and presenting us with this beautiful work that represents a profound and intriguing flow.

Nature
80x140 - acrylic on canvas - Framed
In "Nature," continuing with representations of natural movements, we see a more verticalized work that stands out with a large yellowish shape. Here, the artist seeks to express a sense of peace, the feeling of being enveloped by nature's tranquility. With a grayish and verticalized background overlaid with green and yellow tones, Iuri conveys the idea of calmness and comfort through nature. It's an intriguing piece that invites exploration from different angles to understand the textures and overlays.

Softness
35x27 - acrylic on canvas - with frame
With "Softness," one of the smaller works in this series measuring only 35 by 27 cm, the artist aims to explore the lightness of the depths, using grayish tones of deep blue. Inorganic shapes carried by the movement of the waters create a sense of lightness, like clouds in the sky, floating, being carried by the whims of the winds. However, the dark tones intrigue and question the viewer: What lies there? What is the depth of these forms, and what are their internal secrets?
