A graduate in Industrial Design from the Mackenzie Presbyterian University, Vinicius bases his production on dialogues between figurative painting and matter, moving through object languages, sculpture and drawing. The exploration and choice of materials, especially wood as support, demonstrates the importance they play in the artist's research and how their sensory and manipulative peculiarities interfere with the perception of each work.

The use of the human figure and form as a vehicle of contact in your practice suggests the integration of the observer with the virtuality of representation and intervention in matter, proposing the transformation of the object and its manipulator. Still influenced in his work today by processes and materials commonly used in the manufacture and painting of surfboards, where he began his first artistic experimentations. The artist has had his works in solo and group exhibitions in Brazil and abroad, including an honorable mention at the Levino Fanzeres Art Salon (2022), a solo exhibition at the Luis Maluf Gallery (2022), and participation in fairs such as Art Palm Beach, SP-Arte and ArtRio.
