Existence in Brazil (Series)
DESCRIPTION
This series aims to offer a glimpse into the different realities of everyday life in Brazil, the result not of a tourist trip but of a period of coexistence in that country. The main characters or groups portrayed are anonymous people who crossed paths with the camera and told about their existence through their gestures, their looks and their relationship with the space around them. These are anonymous people, therefore they do not allow a glimpse of the features of their faces. From the colorful and rowdy huts of the favelas that surround the city of Rio de Janeiro to the immense enigmatic spaces of the natural parks of the north of the country, the camera has crossed paths and told the existence of a people that suffers, a people that laughs, who often do not know the time, a kind people always ready to instill hope.
