About Odeith

Sérgio was born in 1976 in Damaia, Portugal. Since the mid-1980s, he has been experimenting with spray cans on the walls of his neighbourhood. In the 1990s, as graffiti began to gain momentum in Portugal, he fully embraced the movement, quickly moving into large-scale works—murals in the districts of Amadora, Carcavelos, and other peripheral areas.

His work is distinguished by a profound interest in perspective and shadow. This fascination evolved in 2005 into what would become his signature style—anamorphic compositions painted on 90° corners, floor-to-wall surfaces, or multiple planes, creating optical illusions that appear to emerge from the wall. Over the years, each public intervention became an opportunity to test limits—technical, spatial, and contextual. For example, a mural in Setúbal, based on an old photograph, expanded into a twenty-metre-high painting incorporating shadows and newly imagined graphic elements.

Over the last decade, he has painted across numerous countries—from the United States to Sweden, from Indonesia to Australia—participating in festivals, exhibitions, and both public and corporate projects. Notable examples include a mural intervention at the Douro waterfront in Portugal; a corporate collaboration in Lisbon; a museum project in London; and interventions in Los Angeles, Stockholm, Almere, and many other locations (2022).

In 2021, he stood out with solo exhibitions, such as “Obliquity” in Lisbon, alongside public interventions in Loures and Amadora. In 2020, his focus shifted toward site-specific projects, creating urban murals in Leiria, Silkeborg (Denmark), and Heathrow Airport in London. In 2019, he embarked on a global journey of projects spanning Portugal, Australia, Switzerland, Indonesia, and Mexico.

The arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic marked a change in pace. International travel and interventions slowed, leading to a renewed focus on studio practice, unique artworks, and refinement of technique. Currently, he is more dedicated to studio work and the conception of carefully controlled pieces, while continuing to engage in selected interventions. The energy of the street remains, intertwined with introspection, self-directed production, and considered artistic direction.

His professional vision is straightforward: each mural or canvas represents a challenge of presence—occupying space, capturing attention, and provoking reflection in the observer. What seems to float on the wall becomes form, shadow, and texture. Today, his work concerns not only the surfaces he paints but also the space between them—the process, context, and passage of time.

Sérgio “Odeith” lives and works in Lisbon, maintaining an intense connection between the urban and the studio, exterior and interior—two facets of the same movement, two forms of painting that constantly intersect.
