The hybrid art of Henrique Oliveira evokes the contrasting qualities of the urban and the natural, the organic and the structural, as well as art and science via unexpected compositions tinted with the fantastic. Often using materials from the urban landscape, Henrique’s installations highlight the endemic nature of precarious urban occupation. His pieces function as a metaphor for organic growth, revealing the decay present in cosmopolitan cities. Born in Brazil, he has lived and worked in London since 2020. His pieces feature in major global exhibitions including solo shows at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris and the Museum of Contemporary Art of São Paulo.
