Exhibitions

Art and design were the ways I found to tell stories that are not just mine, that I learn along the way, free from prejudice and judgment and eager to understand life through the eyes of others. Ways of sharing knowledge by shedding light on facts that we do not learn in school and that often escape us, but that are essential for understanding the world in all its complex relationships.

​

In the beginning it was a dream, today it is a reality that broadens horizons in Brazil and abroad. Through art and design it is possible to spread knowledge, disseminate culture, plant seeds, open space for voices to be heard and stories to be felt, moving, transforming and inspiring.

​

Between exhibitions, talks, lectures, workshops and awards ceremonies, we visited Milan, New York, Geneva, Paris, Brussels, Mexico, Israel, Palestine and other places in Europe, as well as Australia and Iran, bringing the traditions and culture of the Brazilian people through design and art and inspiring partnerships that each day open more doors so that we can show the countless possibilities of carrying out work with social, economic, cultural and environmental responsibility.
