In February 2025, Mobster Lobster was privileged to documenting an inspiring three-month residency at Palácio dos Anjos, where Francisco Vidal @francisco.vidal.777 —an artist celebrated for intertwining Cubist influences, African textile motifs, and the pulse of 1980s hip-hop—collaborated with Rui Major @ruimajor_ .
Critics have noted Vidal’s work as a vibrant dialogue with colonial histories and contemporary identity, placing him among the key voices redefining Lusophone art.
This short loop captures the inception and the right beginning of that creative process—a testament to Vidal’s intellectually layered and culturally resonant artistry that he so brilliantly brought to life.
Francisco Vidal is not just a unique intellectual and mentor in the art scene; he is unquestionably writing a legacy that will inspire generations to come.
Throwback to spring 2024 — when @fiumani_ landed in Los Angeles for a one-month mission, stepping into his California debut with the Gasolene x Los Angeles solo show.
LA opened its doors wide: Sunset Boulevard as our dreamy front porch, @joeregan turning into a lifelong friend, tour guide and collaborator on a large-scale piece with Fiumani..
Opening day was no less special — @officialrobbykrieger took it all in and walked away with two of Fiumani’s works.
@ruimajor_ was there as the hand behind the setup, the eye for artistic direction, and the drive in production — all together with Filippo, embodying @themoblob ’s purpose of meaningful missions and values.
Here’s the trailer documentary (shot and edited by Rui Major) capturing the residency and all the process behind it.

“Eu faço o que eu quero” é um manifesto colectivo, uma celebração do processo criativo, e um tributo ao impulso instintivo da dúvida e da busca de significado quando na necessidade de expressar. Esta exposição reúne artistas que se entregaram à irreverência de criar sem concessões, desafiando as barreiras invisíveis que moldam aquilo que entendemos como normas ou limites.
No centro está a essência da expressão pura e descomprometida - a criação sem pedir permissões e que rejeita o peso das convenções. Criar torna-se um reflexo direto da essência do artista, num processo honesto e despretensioso que dispensa validações ou limites.
“Eu faço o que eu quero” rejeita a ideia de que as regras são absolutas e propõe uma reflexão sobre como muitos dos limites que nos impomos são consentimentos dados a estruturas com as quais nem sempre concordamos. Aqui, não há espaço para a conformidade — prevalece a verdade do gesto, para o risco, para o errar e tentar, para o pulsar natural que conduz a execução.
Esta exposição não busca certezas absolutas. Pelo contrário, é um espaço que privilegia a intuição e a autenticidade como forças motoras da criação, convidando o público a experimentar o lado mais direto, livre e essencial do processo artístico.
Mais do que uma exposição, esta é uma celebração da irreverência num estado maduro, um convite a quebrar convenções autoimpostas e a reencontrar a autenticidade da expressão. É um espaço onde o ato de criar se torna, em si mesmo, uma manifestação de liberdade.
