ART PILGRIMAGE SAO PAULO
British artist Neil Hamon, and the Brazilian
Elaine Tedesco. In the refined mixture of
unusual and unpredictable talents represented
by Leme, an invigorating multimedia artist,
Fernanda Chieco, also stands out. Her
drawings evoke everything from compassion
to slight eeriness, and the objects are not far
behind, bringing forth the surreal and sensorial.
For something less guttural but just as
intriguing, Sandra Cinto’s installations are hard
to equal. Gifted with a heightened sense of the
poetic in visual communication, she revisits her
work through line, textural and contextual
research, and is a powerhouse at Galeria Casa
Triângulo, located in yet another district, Itaim.
Other places worth checking out include 14
Diego Belda’s state-of-the-art Casa Belfiore
bar in the industrial district of Barra Funda. GALLERIES
