"Food Chain" by Brazilian artist Lelo

"Food Chain", a recent series of mixed media drawings and paintings by Brazilian artist Lelo, examines the relationships between human nature and animal nature. In his first solo show in the US, Lelo brings us a variety of works, all of which address his central themes of animal and human relationships, metamorphosis, and interconnectedness. His lighthearted style and use of vivid colors add an unexpected element of excitement to his subject matter. Much of his imagery has a distinct and almost exotic feel to it, reflective of his Brazilian roots.

Location: Art Whino Gallery
173 Waterfront St.
National Harbor, MD 20745

He has been part of numerous exhibitions and publications around the world, including Brazil, Uruguay, Spain, Austria, Switzerland and the US.
