Painted Tepi

Descripción

This artwork comes from a Brazilian friend from São Paulo. He is a regular Brazilian from the big city. Over the years, he has developed a unique style for the Tepi and kuripe he makes. The inspiration for his pieces comes from nature, animals, and  Indian spirituality. These pieces are all unique. Personally, I have not seen this style before, and I am happy to present my friend’s work in my shop.

Bamboo is used for the pipe itself but also for the various structures, shapes, and forms. Some of the pieces are also plastered with cold porcelain and then shaped to their desired form. All the pieces are very detailed. Decorated with normal paint but also with a special paint that glows when exposed to black light. In Brazil, various groups do their ceremonies in the dark, combined with black light. It is in this light that the extra magic of his pieces shows itself.
