BIOGRAPHY
Jean Gillon was originally born in Romania, subsequently becoming naturalized as a Brazilian citizen for the greater part of his life. It was the latter culture that had the greatest influenced on his work as a furniture designer and artist; particularly the vast diversities of the land tempered by the over-arching presence of the Amazonian rainforest.
