Cores e Vidas

Inspired by the vibrant favelas of Brazil, *Cores e Vidas* explores the rhythm, resilience, and humanity found within densely layered urban communities. Through expressive palette knife work and vivid colour, the painting transforms everyday architecture into a dynamic visual tapestry, celebrating life, connection, and the energy of collective existence.

Built through textured layers of oil paint, the work reflects both the complexity and vitality of Brazilian culture. Rather than depicting hardship, the composition highlights joy, movement, and the poetic beauty that emerges through colour and human presence.
