My name is Aladino Van-Dúnem. However my nikname name is Aladin Van-Dúnem. I ´m a Lisbon citizen, but I have Angolan root´s. I dwell with new technologies for more than 20 years now as a Programmer, Web Designer and Blogger. Art messes with me, especially painting, on where I can express myself better. However I am mostly a humanist that worries with social and environment issues. There is not much to add, nowadays. A detail, many reached far on art and technology. One thing and the other is now crashing frustrated with a difficulty to innovate. Artists and thinkers did their part to build this Illuminated New World that has so much to offer and glorify but did not help the distribution off welfare to the media of techniques, style or beauty. It´s pretended to pass a message of unification that overcome époques and heal wounds, on us and among and on those of us who didn´t departed in peace. I want to get people closer, create lines, strings of feeling; to bring us peace and connected to the message of unification and brother wood that I intend to mean. This message is explicitly spread over my works under the theme: Love´s hidden, Redemption, starting the voyage to the Garden of Eden, deed to build a good relation with ours uncesterals, connecting strings that were lost thousands of years before, trying to understand how can to garbage, as it is exemplified by the migrants drama. It also bring to the surface the nasty way how humans (?) treat nature that answers violently as for instance a Hurricane. Softened, pain fades in colours but the message is there as well as the Hurricane that shouts in rage fury. Colour, line, plastic, digital and technological. I have got at my disposition the unbelievable complexity of matter, sentiment, people, and the ability to communicate with millions what is new in this interaction between me and you
