omentejovemIn childhood, omentejovem found joy in playing with kites – though, more often than not, they never made it to the sky. The attempts often ended in scraped knees and shattered frames. Yet, even in defeat, there was invention: broken kites became raw material for new toys, crafted from salvaged sticks and tangled strings. The artist reflects that, in many ways, that pattern still shapes his life today.


Stories on Circles is the first-ever collection presented under SILK — a reflection on how limitations can become a source of liberation. Each piece by omentejovem unfolds within the strict boundary of a circle, yet every one tells a different narrative, transcending its fine-line border through emotional depth. In the spirit of works like Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man or Hilma af Klint's spiritual abstractions, the collection embraces a paradox: creativity sparked by constraint rather than hindered by it, treating circles not as closed loops but as generative spaces full of possibility.
Each work is produced as a digital print with mineral pigments on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, 100% cotton archival paper.

Each piece is available in two formats. Regular edition prints come as a limited edition of 3, signed and numbered by the artist and shipped rolled in a protective tube — ready for you to frame your own way. The artist's proofs (A.P.) are the collector's format: signed and numbered, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Thales Machado, better known as omentejovem, is a self-taught digital artist from Brazil. His work oscillates between figurative representation and abstract openness, forming a visual diary that documents his life experiences and emotions in a very powerful way.
