Fernando Chamarelli is a UNESP formed graphic designer, illustrator and visual artist from Bauru, Sao Paulo. He started drawing cartoons, caricatures and realistic portraits and later became involved with street art and tattooing. It is by merging these different mediums that he creates his art.



Chamarelli lives in a multicultural country of contrasts, therefore this environment reflects in his work. Including mosaic, geometric elements, organic forms and harmonic lines connecting symbols, legends, philosophies, religions and customs of ancient and modern civilizations. Within this diversity are the strong influence of Brazilian popular culture and pre-Columbian indigenous art. His art follows the rhythm of globalization, bridging borders and cultures closer. The Characters with serious expressions live in different realities and in situations that appear surreal. Music has a very important role during the creation, helping to give flow.




I met Fernando a few weeks ago, when he was in Porto Alegre, for a commercial job with Move. He painted the rooms of an advertising agency called Novacentro. Check the pictures bellow.
