Iuri Kothe is a Brazilian Artist who works with photographs, photomontages, video, and audio.
He has exhibited work all over the world since 2004 and has also made appearances in magazines, on cd covers, and paper illustrations. He is a working artist who got an Electrical Engineering degree and a M. Sc. in Digital Audio Processing. He is currently working out of Rio de Janeiro and has taught classes to poor children.

"Iuri Kothe dedicates remarkable talent to the art of collage since 2003 – both analog, with pieces of magazine photographs, and digital, with pictures processed on Photoshop.

His images show good precision, aesthetic appeal and high suggestive impact and have attracted the attention of journalists, who see a peculiar form of communication; and other artists, stimulated to bring them to public exhibition."

I
enjoy his photomontages because they are simple. His works are very dreamlike and have inspired me to go in a simpler direction. I also ennjoy his works because of Kothe's simple background and that he is appears humble. These works coming from someone down to earth and real make me realize it is possible to be an artist and also lead a normal life. It is attainable.
