Nil Moraes
Nil Moraes is part of the new generation of wood craftsmen of Juazeiro do Norte. His characteristic is to keep the pieces "raw", without painting, highlighting the finish and valorization of wood.
The artist started his work in the Mestre Noza Association, but now develops his work in the Cumpadres Ateliê, which he set up in partnership with two other sculptors. His pieces include representations of the Tree of Life and local folklore characters, as well as decorative objects.
From his hands came the sculpture of a heart with veins and arteries that was printed on the invitation to Weiwei’s exhibition.
