about me

"Hello there! I'm Fabio Borges, a Brazilian collage artist now based in Sydney, Australia.

From my earliest memories, I've been captivated by the magic of collage. As a child, I would spend endless hours creating juxtaposed images, weaving together fragments of my personal experiences with the world around me. Little did I know, this playful pastime would evolve into a profound journey of self-discovery and creative expression.

Through the vibrant and boundless universe of collage, I've found a sanctuary for contemplation and healing. Each piece I create is infused with intention, born from the depths of my morning rituals – whether it's a soulful swim, a moment of meditation, or a reflective tarot reading. In practicing what Buddhism calls 'Dharma Art,' I've discovered a path to mindfulness and self-awareness, where every cut and composition becomes a sacred ritual.

My artistic style is a reflection of my inner world – a blend of digital and analogue collage, enriched with vibrant markers, delicate scratching tools, and gilded gold leaves. Within the layers of each artwork, you'll find a playful interplay of animals, toys, and cartoon characters, inviting viewers to explore the depths of irony and whimsy.

Nestled in the heart of Chippendale, my studio serves as more than just a workspace – it's a sanctuary for artistic exploration and community connection. Here, amidst the beauty of nature and the energy of creativity, we come together to seek inspiration and nourish the soul.

Whether you're drawn to the transformative power of art, the wisdom of spiritual teachings, or the joy of shared experiences, I invite you to join me on this journey of discovery and connection. Together, let's unlock the hidden treasures that lie within and celebrate the magic of creativity.

With love always,
Fabio
