Luciano Britto (Rio de Janeiro, 1977) has been living and working in Porto since 2017. Known as the “Master Balloon Maker,” he has developed a distinctive practice centered on the creation of scenographic balloons, exploring a wide range of themes and contexts.

Among his projects are the balloons designed for the São João festivities, in collaboration with Porto City Council, as well as interventions and exhibitions across various spaces in the city, with a particular focus on the Miguel Bombarda Quarter.

Using simple materials such as paper, wire, and glue, Luciano Britto manually constructs a vast universe of forms and objects, establishing a handcrafted practice that brings together popular tradition, visual experimentation, and contemporary imagination.
