I’m still taking it all in. It was one of those nights that stays with you.
Receiving the Art recognition Award at the Esquire Awards is a great honour and a recognition that means a lot to me.
My journey has been shaped by curiosity, experimentation and persistence. By a constant desire to explore ideas, challenge perspectives and find new ways of turning them into something tangible.
To see that journey recognised in this way is truly rewarding.
A big thank you to @esquireportugal, especially @jsantana.esquire and @sara21andrade, for this recognition. And to everyone who has, in one way or another, been part of this journey.
A very special thank you to my ADD FUEL Studio team, @resendino, @jessijones_16 and @nodianasousa. This award is ours.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone who follows, supports, challenges and believes in my work.

Confesso que ainda estou a absorver este momento. Foi uma daquelas noites que ficam na memória.
Receber o Prémio de reconhecimento em Arte, nos Esquire Awards, é uma enorme honra que tem um significado muito especial para mim.
O meu percurso tem sido feito de curiosidade, experimentação e persistência. De uma vontade constante de explorar ideias, desafiar perspectivas e encontrar novas formas de as transformar em algo concreto.
Ver esse caminho reconhecido desta forma é muito gratificante.
Fica aqui um agradecimento à @esquireportugal, em particular ao @jsantana.esquire e à @sara21andrade, por esta distinção. E a todos os que, de alguma forma, têm feito parte desta viagem.
Um agradecimento muito especial à minha equipa ADD FUEL Studio, @resendino, @jessijones_16 e @nodianasousa. Este prémio é nosso.

CARNIVAL NAUTICAL
Asbury Park, New Jersey, USA, 2026
Every place has its own visual language, and in Asbury Park I found one that immediately felt familiar. A direct inspiration from the architectural and decorative heritage of Asbury Park, reinterpreting elements found throughout some of the city’s most emblematic buildings: the Convention Hall, the Paramount Theatre and the Carousel Building. Seashells, seahorses, nautical forms and intricate geometric details, drawn from the eclectic ornamental language of Asbury Park’s 1920s architecture, became the starting point for a new visual vocabulary. These references were transformed into new patterns, bringing the visual language of Asbury Park into dialogue with the centuries old tradition of Portuguese azulejos.
A meeting between two places, two visual languages, and the sea that connects them.
Thank you to everyone who helped bring this project to life, my team @resendino, @jessijones_16 and @nodianasousa, thank you to @woodenwalls, @plusone.ap and @parlorgallery, and thank you to everyone who stopped by and became part of the process.
More love, more life, more light.
Stay with me.

It is my immense pleasure to announce that the artwork ‘A JANELA’ is now permanently on display at @lixil_inaxmuseums, in Japan, Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture.
A piece of Portugal now in permanence in Japan, bonding two cultures and two countries with a beautiful story, written in tiles.

‘INAX MUSEUMS (in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture), a set of cultural facilities operated by LIXIL Corporation (“LIXIL”) that conveys the fascinating stories of clay and ceramic, will permanently exhibit the installation artwork “A JANELA” (by ADD FUEL, Diogo Machado), which utilizes Portugal’s traditional decorative tiles, ‘Azulejos’ in its Main Approach (Parking 2) starting November 28, 2025.
This artwork was commissioned by @visitportugal to be exhibited outside of the Portugal Pavilion at the @Expo2025Japan in Osaka, Kansai, Japan. In pursuit of the Expo’s goal of sustainable operation, which includes the effective use of resources, VisitPortugal sought a recipient for the legacy piece. They offered to donate the work to our museum, which houses the Tile Museum, leading to the decision for its permanent exhibition here.
The artist of the donated installation “A JANELA” is Diogo Machado (ADD FUEL), a contemporary Portuguese artist. In creating the work, he researched Japanese culture and focused on traditional Japanese patterns such as Seigaiha (waves), clouds, Genjiguruma (court carriage wheel), Hanabishi (diamond-shaped flower), dragons, Torii (shrine gates), and Tomoe (comma pattern). He creatively reinterpreted these patterns while paying homage to them, integrating them into Portugal’s proud decorative tile culture. The open section is said to have been conceived as a door to the dialogue between Portuguese and Japanese cultures, and a symbolic “window” connecting the two nations. This artwork will be his first permanent exhibition in Japan.’

Is this the most asymmetrical tile-inspired design I’ve ever created?
More love, more life, more light.

Focus | Add Fuel
A closer look at the artworks of Portuguese artist ADD FUEL (@addfuel), currently featured in Beyond the Surface at Laurent Marthaler Contemporary gallery.
Masterfully reimagining traditional Portuguese azulejo tilework through a contemporary street art lens, ADD FUEL manipulates pattern, depth, and perception. Classic cobalt motifs appear to tear and peel away, exposing vibrant layers, hidden characters, and complex geometric textures beneath. By bridging heritage craft with modern stencil techniques, his work transforms centuries-old ornament into a dynamic dialogue between tradition and urban culture.

In Conversation | Add Fuel x Simon Berger
As part of our current exhibition BEYOND THE SURFACE, we go behind the scenes of a unique artistic dialogue between Add Fuel and Simon Berger.
In this exclusive interview, the two artists tell how their paths first crossed, why they chose to work together, and the creative vision that brought their practices into conversation. Berger’s shattered-glass portraits meet Add Fuel’s reimagined azulejos, and together they explore texture, pattern and what lies beneath the surface.
Watch the full reel to get to know the artists behind the work and the ideas that shaped this duo show.
