Portuguese artist Add Fuel is Diogo Machado, born in Cascais in 1980. After earning a graphic design degree from IADE in Lisbon and working in studios across Portugal and Germany, he committed himself fully to art in 2007. He first called his project Add Fuel to the Fire, building a playful universe of eccentric monsters drawn from video games, comics, sci fi and urban culture. A year later he shortened the name and shifted focus toward the hypnotic geometry of azulejo tiles, the tin glazed ceramic panels that cloak Portugal in blue and white rhythm. By merging this national heritage with street art energy, he creates works that feel both ancient and immediate.

Each piece begins as a meticulous sketch that is translated into hand painted tiles, screen prints or large stencils for murals. Machado layers symmetrical patterns, trompe l’oeil tricks and bursts of flat color so that traditional motifs fracture into contemporary movement. The effect is a visual drumbeat that invites viewers to lose themselves in detail and then step back to see a cohesive, glowing whole. His walls rise in cities from Miami and Los Angeles to Stavanger, Paris, Macau and Fall River, each site specific project honoring local history while inserting his signature tile language. Recent works such as On the Rise in West Palm Beach weave railroad heritage and coastal waves into patterned grandeur, while Bloom pairs lotus and clematis flowers as metaphors for resilience. Whether rendered on ceramic, canvas or concrete, Add Fuel’s art celebrates the dialogue between heritage and modernity, proving that tradition can still surprise.
