Fidel Évora, born in Cape Verde in 1984, holds a prominent position in the art community. His unique blend of talent and innovative use of silkscreen in painting has cemented his place among art enthusiasts. His artwork not only narrates captivating stories but also deeply resonates with Évora himself, embedding his personal memories and identity into each piece. From a young age, Évora honed his techniques, integrating diverse experiences to produce internationally recognized masterpieces.

As a versatile artist, some of Évora’s acclaimed works include “Oxi dretu, manham mariádu”, “MASS MEDIA”, “Fla Mudjeris”, and “Fake Self-portrait 1989”. These pieces have garnered significant appreciation from both the public and art critics. Évora exhibits a particular fascination with the fusion of silkscreen and traditional painting, exploring this blend through a variety of mediums and tools. These range from paints and spray paints to plastics and even makeshift brushes, echoing his profound inspiration from urban art and graffiti.

Fidel is working with MOVART, established in 2015, which promotes experimental exhibitions in Luanda and Lisbon, showcasing contemporary African art. The gallery represents artists from African and Portuguese-speaking diasporas and collaborates with other artists. MOVART participates in international fairs and offers consultancy services and cultural projects for public and private organizations.
