The following poster is in part inspired by the idea of borders and what that means in today’s context. By taking visual cues of map outlines and merging, distorting, and erasing them I’m attempting to create imagined landscapes that speak to the fragmented and disorienting nature of what it means to live in a globalized yet very divided world.

It is a place where humans coexist with incredible balance with each other. A balance that is increasingly lost between the city and surrounding nature.

This work portrays the unbelievable density of the human population in a Brazilian favela, where the poor have been marginalised into an illegal and dangerous urban environment. But the people in these places are coexisting and creating their own functioning communities despite the hardship.

We should stay more together.
