Manzi

What did an extraterrestrial say to a fancy trumpeter and a nudist sitting at a bar counter? Well, probably nothing. But you may find them all having a drink together in Guilherme Manzi’s work. This Brazilian Graphic Artist and Illustrator creates an interesting blend of daily themes with absurd elements.

Taking inspiration from minimalism, pop culture and, of course, graphic novels, Manzi’s resulting works deconstruct design with strong lines and crazy character anatomies. He divides his time between developing his own artistic projects and working as an Art Director at advertising agencies, continually taking influence from graphic design concepts.

“Although I think this term is too fancy for me, I would say I am a multidisciplinary artist”, says Manzi. He admits to being a heavy user of digital techniques in his daily projects, but he’s also in love with painting, engraving and sculpting. “I could never keep going without paper and pens. Trying new materials and applying new techniques are very important things to me” comments the artist.

Lately, Manzi has been dedicating himself to another thing he is crazy about: 2D animation. As he has already developed some experimental animated short films, he is now studying to develop his skills as a director and animator.

Manzi believes that we are not alone in the universe and sees in science fiction a way to explore human smallness.
