Seven Years Ed. 1 of 1

This artwork pays tribute to my marriage, the central relationship in my life. The eye symbolizes the spiritual awakening that came from this journey, as well as the interdependence and emotional attachment between both partners. Despite the romance and idealism, there was also a struggle with control, fear, and insecurity from both sides. However, these complexities ultimately helped us both grow and awaken as individuals.

Hi, I’m Fabio Borges — a Brazilian-born artist working at the intersection of collage, contemplation, and healing.

My creative process blends digital and analogue techniques with mindfulness, breathwork, and deep inner work. Each piece begins with intention — whether from a morning swim, a tarot reading, or silent meditation.

I see collage as a sacred practice. It’s how I stay present, explore my emotions, and make meaning from life’s paradoxes.
My art brings together spiritual symbols, childhood nostalgia, and raw human emotion — often mixing Christian iconography, Buddhist wisdom, Umbanda protection and shamanic elements.

For me, creating isn’t just expression — it’s healing.
After years of working with branding and communication, and now as a holistic practitioner, I’ve found that art is the most honest way I can serve others.

Since 2018, I’ve exhibited in Sydney, Miami, Nova York, Los Angeles, Londres, Barcelona, Madrid and São Paulo. I also run mindful collage workshops from my studio in Chippendale.

If, like me, you're driven more by questions than answers…
If you feel there's something inside your chest asking to be seen, touched, expressed…
Then maybe my art can walk with you through that journey.

I hope one of my pieces speaks to your heart.
