Brazilian artist Amanda Lobos is known for her vibrant contrasts, eye-opening patterns, and mischievous creatures that come to life in her beguiling scenes. Based in Vila Velha, Lobos works across various mediums, including graphic and product design, murals, and public installations.

One of Lobos’ notable works is a large-scale inflatable piece titled “Ventura,” which was installed on a building in Belo Horizonte last year. Inspired by the philosophy of Indigenous Brazilian environmentalist Ailton Krenak, Lobos emphasizes the importance of living in harmony with nature rather than trying to control it.

“Ventura” stands tall on the building, with its double-faced figure overlooking the surroundings. The artwork symbolizes the struggle of returning a star to the sky and embodies the duality of the fantastic and the real, according to Lobos.

Lobos’ art is often open to interpretation, allowing viewers to derive their own meanings from her work. She believes that the visual language of her pieces speaks for itself, giving viewers the freedom to interpret it as they wish. This approach adds a layer of mystery and playfulness to her murals and installations.

In her vivid murals, Lobos combines mystery and play, with whimsical characters dancing amidst colorful panels or walls celebrating themes like science, art, curiosity, and play. For instance, a mural at a school in Serra’s Jardim Limoeiro neighborhood showcases a joyful celebration of learning and exploration.

Lobos finds the process of painting murals particularly rewarding, as it allows her to see her ideas come to life on a large scale. She values the hands-on experience of painting without the luxury of an “Undo” button, which teaches her to embrace mistakes and adapt creatively. Each wall presents a fresh learning opportunity for the artist.

Excited about her upcoming collaboration in Mexico for the Movimento Cidade festival, Lobos continues to explore new avenues for her art. Her portfolio includes a wide range of vibrant product collaborations and commissions, which can be explored on platforms like Behance and Instagram.

From whimsical tarot card designs to fantastical murals and public installations, Amanda Lobos’ art captivates viewers with its playful yet thought-provoking imagery. Her unique blend of mystery, creativity, and color brings a touch of magic to the world of art.
