About me

ICHASEBALLOONS is Gui Soares. Illustrator, Digital Artist and all around visualista & mind bender. Invented in Rio de Janeiro, back in '78, spends his time between Rio and São Paulo, planning worldwide domination during his spare time. Meddles with anything visual and musical as far back as memory reaches. Finds beauty in anything and creates it out of nothing. Daydreams all day long and chases balloons since he was little, with no intention to stop.

Gui's unique style is the result of years of a very weird, organic, chaotic, research driven creative process that results in beautiful craziness. It allowed for working on collabs and comissions from companies such as Nike, Slikland and Oakley, to dope artists ranging from Ill Camille, to Criolo, B Negão, Little Simz, Shocka, Levelle London, Emicida and so many others, creating murals, graphic interventions, visual mapping, installations, cover art, wallpapers, interior decorations and all that heat. The pleasure is all yours. :)
