THE ART
Amarildo Ruci
Amarildo Ruci: From Canvas to Couture
Amarildo Ruci has made his mark on the international art scene through his unique blend of finger-painting and symbolic surrealism. His work has been showcased in some of the world's most prestigious cities including Milan, Heidelberg, Madrid, New York, Cyprus, Turkey, Berlin, and Paris Louvre. Inspired by the demand of clients who wanted to carry his art into their daily lives, Amarildo ventured into fashion. He launched @amarildoshop on Instagram, transforming his paintings into wearable designs. The Amru Collection takes this concept to new heights, featuring designs that incorporate key elements of Amarildo's paintings. These elements are reimagined and refined to create pieces that are as unique as they are artistic. The collection debuted at Art Basel Miami Beach, with models from Chez Le Mannequins showcasing this fusion of art and fashion. In addition to showcasing his fashion brand, Amarildo showcased some of his art work and even gave a live painting performance. Ruci gave an emotional depiction of his journey as an artist through his art and words painting an eye in various transitioning environments. Amarildo's mission is to merge art and fashion seamlessly, offering people a way to express themselves while celebrating contemporary art. His ultimate goal is to establish Amru as a globally recognized clothing brand, embodying creativity, individuality, and innovation. His success story reflects not only his artistic achievements but also his ability to innovate and adapt. As Amru Collection makes its debut on the global stage, Amarildo is already planning the next steps to expand his brand internationally, building on the strong foundation of his artistic legacy.
