Tuxaua

Tuxaua portrays the jaguar as a sacred guardian of the forest. Inspired by the rich biodiversity of Brazil and the strength of Indigenous cultures, the jaguar wears a vibrant feather headdress, a symbol deeply connected to the traditions of many Indigenous peoples of the Amazon.

The name Tuxaua refers to a leader or chief in several Indigenous cultures of Brazil, representing wisdom, protection, and responsibility for the community. In this piece, the jaguar embodies that role — a powerful protector of nature.

Surrounded by tropical birds, flowers, and colorful feathers, the composition celebrates the diversity and vitality of the Brazilian rainforest. The jaguar stands at the center as a spiritual guardian, reminding us of the deep connection between nature, animals, and the original peoples who have protected these lands for generations.

Painted in watercolor with vibrant colors and intricate details, Tuxaua is both a tribute to the beauty of Brazilian wildlife and a symbol of respect for the cultures that live in harmony with the forest.
