HIDDEN BOY

Aimoré Seixas dos Campos Salles de Mesquita Ávilla was born in 1980 in Coimbra, Portugal. As a child, he came to Brazil and, in Lajes, at his uncle's house, developed a taste for painting. Observant and detail-oriented, he became capable of perfectly reproducing any painting he desired, line by line, tone by tone. After returning to Portugal to study Fine Arts, Aimoré returned to Brazil and established his base in Rio de Janeiro, where he taught literature at a school in Nova Iguaçu. "HIDDEN BOY," by the renowned novelist Godofredo de Oliveira Neto, illustrates the trajectory of this Portuguese professor and master forger.
