Patu Araújo

Artist and Designer

Patu Araújo is a Brazilian multidisciplinary artist and designer born in Ilhéus, Bahia, and currently based in Curitiba, Paraná.

Their practice engages with the construction of identity and the ongoing processes of erasure surrounding Afro-Indigenous Brazilian histories. Working across visual arts, Patu develops a language shaped by distortion and a vibrant, insurgent color palette, moving fluidly between painting, performance, photography, and video mapping. In the field of design, their work centers on typography, animation, and production design, where narrative, space, and visual rhythm converge as critical tools of expression.
