César Martiniano is an abstract painter from Terceira Island, located in the Portuguese archipelago of the Azores. His paintings are passionate journeys into his fertile innerscape, inspired by the magnificent nature of his native land. Self-taught, he lets intuition guide him, allowing shapes and colors to form organically. While still in high school, Martiniano became a graffiti artist and muralist– experimenting with spray paint and typography–and later earned a degree in graphic design on the mainland. His unique blend of graphic design and street art influences is evident in his work today, demonstrating his ability to convey messages efficiently through minimalist design. In 2020 Martiniano decided to quit his marketing agency and transition to a fulltime art career, further exploring abstract minimalism, typography, and the power of hidden messages in his creations. His latest series, “Atlantic Whispers,” celebrates the vibrant palette of his native Azores, where lush blues and greens prevail. These paintings pay homage to the beauty of nature and inspire viewers to reconnect with their inner child while approaching life with unending curiosity.

I’m a passionate artist with a mission to stretch the boundaries of creativity using unconventional tools and a unique vision. My work, inspired by a background in graphic design and graffiti, is a journey into inner landscapes, inviting viewers to delve into their own experiences. I primarily employ acrylics on canvas or paper, often combining them with spray paint, chalk, and crayons. As a self-taught artist, I draw inspiration from nature, forming shapes and colors as my intuition dictates. My latest series, Atlantic Whispers, explores the lush palette of my native Azores, where vibrant blues and green predominate. Each piece contains hidden text, which is only visible by turning on a light switch. The paintings celebrate the glory of nature while encouraging viewers to explore their inner child and embrace life with an ever-curious spirit.
