Brazilian artist Jaider Esbell, one of the leading figures in contemporary indigenous art, was found dead at age 41 in his home in Sao Paulo.

Officials did not say what killed Esbell, a member of the Macuxi indigenous group from northeastern Brazil who rose to international fame with politically charged works on climate change, indigenous issues and the destruction of the Amazon rainforest.

His work currently features prominently in the Sao Paulo Biennial of Contemporary Art, including two inflatable, multi-coloured snake-shaped sculptures on a lake that welcome visitors to the expo. "With clarity and generosity, he became one of the leading voices for indigenous artists, building bridges and exchanging knowledge with the institutional circuit of the contemporary art world," the expo's organisers said in a statement.
