From Colombo to the world: meet the artists of Galeria Fazendinhando

It is no exaggeration to say that art transforms. Among the many environments that could be created for Janelas CASACOR, São Paulo edition, the team of Ester Carro, Verônica Vaccaro and the office Plantar Ideias chose to create a gallery. This construction is symbolic, because a gallery none is complete without works to fill it. Thus, the Fazendinhando Gallery , in Jardim Colombo, was born so that residents could occupy it, filling it with art! “Usually, in the outskirts, we breathe art. It is what brings hope, life. It is through art that we can express ourselves, whether in painting, sculpture or dance. Here in Colombo it is no different.”, he explains. Ester. Thinking of art as a form of appreciation, recognition and personal expression, the first exhibition at Galeria Fazendinhando is made up of works signed by women living in the community, of all ages and professions. The idea, according to Ester, is to highlight the potential of Jardim Colombo, especially the potential of women who produce art, despite all the difficulties. The great artists on display do not necessarily work professionally in the field: they paint, draw and take photographs out of passion. Until now, their talents were “hidden”, so to speak, but now they are being presented to Jardim Colombo and the world. Crispina , Adriana and Kamila shared a little of their creative experience with CASACOR . Check it out below!
