WESLEY SATS (Recife, Brazil, 1993) is an artist from Pernambuco whose work, executed predominantly in acrylic, reveals an intense emotional and autobiographical journey. His creations are known for portraying the artist himself in three-dimensional environments, using psychoanalytic theories to transpose complex memories into detailed and expressive figures.

He began his artistic journey by composing and writing poems. Self-taught, at the age of 14 he developed an interest in painting, having discovered the woodcut technique in the city of Cabo de Santo Agostinho.
This period was fundamental for improving his technical skills and deepening his artistic expression.

In adolescence, the alter ego SAND (persona that represents your deepest feelings)
became a constant presence in his works. This central figure is used by WESLEY SATS to express his emotions, life experiences and poetic vision of the contemporary.

He participated in several group exhibitions, experiences that were crucial for the development of his techniques and consolidation of his artistic style. His works are visual chronicles, psycho-geographical narratives that express his constant battle to understand his own desires, desires and memories.

With unusual expressiveness, he developed techniques with geometric shapes, absence of colors (in his first phase) and colors (in his second phase). His work involves direct interaction with the observer, making his works both an absorbed and expansive exploration.
