Gabriel Azevedo

Gabriel Azevedo is an illustrator and designer who was born in Recife and settled in São Paulo, Brazil. His diverse work, which ranges from branding to posters, is strongly linked to the fashion scene. He's been developing unique prints for renowned fashion and cosmetic brands in Brazil.

Colourful, full of light and detailed, his images become exuberant through his aesthetic eye and strong composition sense. His design craft is based on a mix of techniques such as collage, manual drawing and digital illustration.

His illustration encompasses Saudade, a Portuguese word embodying the eternal presence of places, people, and moments that live forever within us. He believes that the most profound moments are found in the simplest experiences—when we quiet the noise of cities and delve into our internal forest, where our ancestral nature resides.
