ABOUT JONAS KLEINE
I am Jonas Kleine, a contemporary sculptor based in São Paulo.
I create original art in steel, guided by ideas.
I am known for my original steel sculptures, which combine geometry, symbolism, and visual power.
Originally from Imbituba (SC), I began my career in architecture, where I developed my three-dimensional perception. Later, I graduated in Design from Anhembi Morumbi University, and it was there that I understood that my path was to create pieces that expressed more than aesthetics or design, but rather pieces that represented feelings.
My works follow their own language: Geometric Figurative.
Exclusive creations, made of steel, with precise cuts, refined finish, and incorporated meaning. I don't follow formulas. I don't mass-produce.
Each sculpture is original, limited, and designed to mark the space.
Many of my artworks are born from the animal kingdom, but they are not just representations; they are symbolic examples of courage, wisdom, freedom, and strength.
Today, my sculptures are present in collections in Brazil, Europe, and the United States, as well as in high-end residences and corporate spaces.
In 2023, I was chosen to create the iconic Il Cavallino for Ferrari for the first Casa Ferrari in Latin America. In the same year, I developed an original collection of 10 sculptures for Big Brother Brazil 23.
“I create art to give form to the invisible.”

ABOUT JONAS KLEINE STUDIO
Jonas Kleine Studio is more than a factory. It is the atelier where each sculpture gains form, volume, and attitude.
Formerly known as Studio Metalik, the studio evolved alongside Jonas Kleine’s artistic journey and now officially carries the artist’s name, reinforcing its authorial nature and its position within contemporary steel art.
It is within this space that every stage of creation takes place cutting, assembly, and final finishing. The work is crafted by hand, with clean welds, calculated edges, and high-end automotive paint finishes, where aesthetic sophistication meets technical mastery.
All works are produced in limited editions, under strict control of quality and execution. Nothing is mass-produced. Each piece is numbered, signed, and carries Jonas Kleine’s authorial DNA, from concept to final finish.
