André Themoteo Alves Corrêa, a.k.a. "Andréground-MMC" is a Sacred Geometer, Optical Illusionist, enthusiast of Gestalt phenomena as an artist, designer, typographer, calligrapher, graffiti writer, beginner engraver and aspiring sculptor. Researcher in ‘Graphical Science’ and 4D. Born in Rio de Janeiro, 1986, Brazil.

Since 2002 when starting to write graffiti, had discovered the passion for letters, that increased later after studying Graphic Design at ‘Univercidade’ (University) learning optical kinetics and Gestalt basics geometry applied to letters and image, it increased in 2012 while presented a successful Alphabet in the genre of optical illusions to the Typology class of Professor Horcades, with whom had discovered the typography fundamentals.

Began later his career as a type-designer with this same project the Font Family: ‘Penrose Geometric’ in 2013. In honor to the Father of “Impossible Figures”, the Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvärd, therefore also to M.C. Escher and Sir. Roger Penrose, it was redesigned and relaunched in 2018 with alternates as much more times greater.

At this period realized that had the flame of typography alight, started to collect unfinished alphabets and in 2015 accomplished an easier task than the others stocked, two more families, ‘Technical Signature’ and ‘Technical Scripture’ in pixel labyrinthine genre with multiple layers styles, that need to be upgraded. The next releases have a sense of modularity and mechanical rhythm also aims to improve also on calligraphy for something more remarkable or traditional.

Apart that moves a beginner carrier in lettering design and logos captivated by the genre also of his authorial graphic work with emphasis on “Graphical Science” due to the fascination in mathematics postulates, such as non-Euclidean geometry, fractals, optical illusions, kinetics, regular plane division, paves, symmetry, Golden Ratio, Divine Proportion, Cavaliere Perspective, among others.

And after drop the unfinished faculty degree in Graphic Design, cultivates the old childhood dream of studying architecture. In addition, has as scientific investigation, a heuristic theory still in development, on the possibility of the construction of solids known as “impossible figures” in hermetic form, that would be the 4D paradox.
