Agostinho Dacunha, self-taught artist, has made his home in Gironde since 2010. His field of artistic expression is mainly in sculpture, where he creates remarkable works from recycled metals of all kinds.
His sculptures are astonishingly diverse, ranging from monumental pieces representing animals, imaginary creatures or mythological characters, to more modest sculptures made from metal objects and small recycled parts. This variety testifies to his passion for the art of sculpture and his ability to give a second life to abandoned materials.
Agostinho's creations have been exhibited in various places in Libournais, notably in Saint-Émilion, where his artistic work was particularly well received. He also created an important memorial monument for the organ donation association, which is now installed in front of the Robert Boulin hospital in Libourne. This artistic contribution demonstrates his commitment to humanitarian causes and his desire to put his talent at the service of the community.
One of the notable exhibitions of his career was that of "Predator" at the Bordeaux Geek Festival at the Bordeaux International Fair in May 2016, which attracted more than 50,000 visitors, thus confirming his status as a recognized artist.
Agostinho also actively participated in the 2014 Heritage Days program in Saint-Émilion, where his sculptures were exhibited in different emblematic locations of the city, showcasing his artistic talent within the local community.
His work has also been widely covered by the media, with articles appearing in publications such as Sud Ouest and Le Résistant, notably on the occasion of the inauguration of the monument in memory of organ donors at the Robert Boulin hospital. from Libourne in June 2014.
Agostinho Dacunha also exhibited his works during the Art and Wine days in 2012 and 2013 at the Château du Grand Puch in Saint-Germain-du-Puch in Gironde, and was the subject of articles and television reports, thus attesting to his recognition and appreciation of his artistic work within the local artistic and media community.
