    City View of [...] | 2016

The city changes, grows, transform itself. The landscape, ephemeral, dissolve itself into concrete. We can no longer identify the geographic references that gave rise to its foundation. Which way is the river? Where does the sun rise? What makes this city unique? The series View of [...] is a work in progress that has been carried out so far in 9 cities (Florianópolis, Porto Alegre, Sao Paulo, Belem and Rio de Janeiro - Brazil, Buenos Aires - Argentina, Dubai - UEA, New York - EUA and Paris - France). The proposal is to photograph the window view in different cities whenever the expectation of a great view is frustrated by the presence of another building, making it unlikely to identify the place and so, making all those different cities look as they were the same.
