Gonçalves’ love of architectural design has had a direct influence in the development of his shadow art creations. These fascinating sculptures harness light into shadow by strategically organizing cut pieces of wood to cast surprising shapes and silhouettes. Gonçalves exhibits his work throughout South Florida and is well received by both private and corporate collectors across the United States
