Arraiolos wool
as the common thread
Thread by thread I build my own story. For me the artistic process is a form of discovery, of self-awareness, of revealing what our own existence is. Each piece I create is, therefore, a journey. An internal journey that runs through my experiences and manifests itself in different shapes and colors.
It can start with a path previously traced that can be revealed through a drawing or,
as most of the times, it is an act of pure creation, an improvisation where the hands
become the vehicle for something that only the mind can achieve to view. Geometry, nature, life itself, is what drives me as an artist. Whether through straight
lines or more organic shapes, the end result always reveals my own aesthetic and
language.

"The common denominator in all João Bruno's work is the transcendent need of what we call beauty. There is in everything that he does a proof of the statement that beauty matters."
