The works of Brazilian artist Tarsila do Amaral were reproduced on a unique platform for the collective exhibition Manifesto Tramas das Artes . Until September 15, By Kamy will exhibit the artist's paintings on hand-woven arazzos. Curated by Rio de Janeiro psychologist and writer Daniella Bauer, the exhibition brings together pieces by renowned artists – in addition to Tarsila do Amaral – Gilvan Samico, Niobe Xandó, Di Cavalcanti, Luisa Editore, Mónica Millán and Nicole Tomazi. The exhibition promotes the encounter between textile design and contemporary art, taking a new look at the presence of art in a volatile and fickle society. 
Inspired by the question "what is art?", the curator studied the market for artistic productions to provide the answer: "art is a way of translating and expressing what we understand or not, what we see, feel, touch, smell, we listen to or intuit what revolts us, what silences us, what needs to be said. It is above all a way of breaking paradigms and establishing something new."
