Collection: Osias André

Osias André from Mozambique, immigrated to Portugal 4 years ago where he won 3 scholarships from the independent art school Ar.Co, an institution dedicated to experimentation and artistic training. Osias started painting when he was 8 years old and he began his artistic career through graphic illustration, producing a collection of books. For him, illustration offered a more immediate and direct sensation towards the observer while painting demands a slower and indirect digestion.

Osias currently lives and works in Lisbon.
