Abstract

Visual essay entitled Human Landscapes, poetic works made with watery pictorial techniques that show an investigative-practical path inspired by people living on the streets in the city of São Paulo. Characters treated as discard, rags and leftovers, alleged ugliness that we socially refuse to face, expose the fragility and perversity of the current system. The records and creations propose to the viewer a slower time, or another act, curiosity and dedication that allow a tour of the work, a look beyond, in order to glimpse layers and figures, social symptoms that require reflection and new practices. The horrible reality is transfigured into poetic reality, inviting thought and actions towards the opposite path, depersonalization and breaking down preconceived and pre-formulated ideas.
