“The overall theme that runs through my work is of embracing “happy accidents” and subtle imperfections. (Human) Handmade art is inherently imperfect and, just like in life, it’s precisely those imperfections that make it unique and interesting.”

Augusto Zambonato is originally from Santa Maria located in southern Brazil. Augusto has studied illustration and graphic design at the UFSM (Federal University of Santa Maria) and at SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design.
His illustration reflects his interest in old world craftsmanship paired with modern aesthetic. Each illustration is executed with a clear concept drawn, cut out of a linoleum block and printed, by hand. The illustration is then enhanced digitally.
Cubism and northern Brazil woodcuts, also known as "Cordel Literature" have influenced Augusto’s work. The end result yields illustration which explores every aspect of visual communication, transcending all language barriers.
