A native of Minas Gerais a Carioca at heart (Rio de Janeiro native) dancer, singer, radio actress, visual artist, columnist, writer, and surface designer, the self-taught Adriana Vitória was six months old when her family left Belo Horizonte to live in Rio de Janeiro. She began her artistic education at a young age. Between 1974 and 1981 she studied dance. Between 1982 and 1986 she dedicated herself to the study of vocal technique, and in 1987, she graduated as a socio-cultural animator.
She danced, sang, studied languages, became a professional event planner, and, eager to broaden her horizons, set off to the world.
She lived in England, Italy, France, Portugal, and the United States. She grew up surrounded by nature, in the mountains of Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro. Passionate about the Atlantic Forest and the diverse indigenous ethnicities around the world, since childhood, she has sought ways to care for and speak about the land and the unique beings that live on it.
In 1990, she discovered the art of writing, drawing, and illustration. From then on, she created and licensed various artistic works, chronicles, fabric prints, and products to stores, NGOs, and companies. In 2016, invited by the then design director of MAM (Museum of Modern Art), she held an exhibition as a surface designer in the museum's store, Novo Desenho - Rio de Janeiro. From then on, products featuring her art remained on permanent display and for sale in the stores of the MAM and MAR museums in Rio de Janeiro until 2022.
In 2023 she launches her first art book, “Cunhãs a Cia da Terra“, with texts about the importance of preserving the environment.
Currently, she is working on a new book, creating new products and reproductions of her art.
