João Jacinto
(Mafra ,1966) Lives and works in Estoril, Portugal.
Between 1985 and 1999 João Jacinto studied at ESBAL, Lisbon, where he completed his PhD thesis in Drawing (2013). Since 2001 develops a teaching activity at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Lisbon.
Constantly explorating between painting and drawing, Jacinto's work is characterized by a graphical diversity, accumulation of materials or by testing the structural limits of each work. From abstraction to the construction of landscapes, the compositions he develops acquire a very strong bodily dimension.
