Description of the Artwork “Ancestral Angel: Spirit in Color”
In this work, Marcelo Fidélis explores the mix between traditionalism and modernity through the prism of an ancestral angel. Through vibrant colors and knife techniques, the artist infuses life into abstract elements that refer to drinks, cocktails and decorations. There is a fluid dynamism, a continuous movement that shines through the colored glass and stylized drops. The painting, imbued with primitivism and influences of Naïve Art, invites the observer to reflect on ancestry and modernity, revealing a vibrant soul rich in meaning.

Marcelo Fidélis, Portugal
Born in Barbacena- MG, Marcelo Fidélis is a self-taught artist. His relationship with art dates back to when he was a child and trained as a cook. He currently develops work using experimental techniques linked to sculpture, painting, cooking and skateboarding. His work revolves around the simple representation of the human face, establishing different variations through materials, textures, colors and expressions, towards a sculptural process of the surface, valuing manual work. His work is an invitation to a natural, pure and instinctive experience, combined with the primitive and the strength of the face as a means of encounter, presence and expression.
