Delson emerged with the 80s generation of brazilian artists. his paintings are characterized by the use of acidic, noisy colors, an illuminated, vibrant palette that leads the public’s gaze across highly elaborate surfaces, produced by an obsessive accumulation of gestures, decals, collages and many layers of paint and synthetic varnishes. they are structured around formal principles that are a legacy of the constructivist-concrete tradition, incorporating motifs and techniques taken from folk decoration, lace, embroidery and weaves that result in optical effects and fields. – designboom

A short time after that, in 1979, he opened his first solo show. Three years later he participated in a project called “Viualidade Popular na Amazonia;” since then he inensified his research about color and light. – Bio
