                        About the Artist
                    Born in Salvador, Brazil in 1985, Antonio Tarsis is a significant contemporary artist known for his compelling works of collage and assemblage. His artistic process is deeply rooted in his immediate urban surroundings, as he meticulously collects and repurposes discarded materials such as cardboard, fabric, and other found objects. Tarsis's art critically engages with socio-economic realities, addressing themes of inequality, racial identity, and the complex narratives embedded within the remnants of everyday life. By transforming these overlooked materials, he creates poignant visual statements that speak to cultural memory, resilience, and the ongoing dialogue between history and the present.
