Deco Adjiman
Deco Adjiman (1979, São Paulo, Brazil) is a visual artist and poet, graduated in Social Communication from Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado – FAAP, São Paulo. The artist explores the relationship between the word and its possible visualities, as well as walking and wandering as a construction of new landscapes. His work involves the creation of objects, sculptures, artist books, texts and installations, using raw materials, often found on streets, beaches and forests. He has held five solo exhibitions, most notably eu, mesmo (2016), where he investigated the possibilities of translation, both between languages and between languages, a theme that remains in his research. In 2022, in the exhibition ps. nos achamentos do chão também foram encontraros os mistérios do voo (in the finds on the ground, the mysteries of flight were also found), he presented a series of installation works, some interactive, that connected with his experiences of drifting and reading, transforming ordinary objects into “sacred” elements. His artistic practice involves long walks as a form of subjective research, transforming drifting and wandering into artistic acts, materialized through objects, texts, drawings and installations. Currently, he continues to investigate and artistically connect the concepts of the book and the road, of the word and displacement, creating a dialogue between these ideas in his work.
