ITEM Exhibition - Photographs I took between 2011-2021馃幀
Photographic poetic synthase
ITEM. Photographic poetic synthesis, imagery essays on emergencies. Young black man, from Barcelona, Serra, Esp铆rito Santo, expressing through the cinematographic language what is inherent to him: Real changes. Seven years of prints that have become expressions sculpted in time through visual language. From 2013 to 2020 inhabiting spaces and in-between spaces of cities. Spasms over urban problems in antagonism with the refuge in natura dictate the pace in ITEM."

The exhibition "ITEM" delves into everyday life, exploring the intersection between popular culture and urban living. Through digital and analog photographs, artist Thiago Souza captures ephemeral moments that echo the reality of the streets.
This exhibition is a tribute to the richness of popular culture and the underground experience of surfing. The photographs transcend the limits of time, freezing instants of sensibility and reality.

The core of the exhibition lies in the authenticity of the real people portrayed, highlighting the essence of popular culture in its various manifestations. Each image invites the viewer to enter the invisible layers of urban experiences, where each agent tells a story and each scene resonates with an emotion.
By contemplating these images, viewers are invited to feel the sensitivity of the artist's gaze, immersing themselves in a new look at the simple and the everyday.
Behind each photograph is the attentive and grateful gaze of the artist, whose experiences

Photos of the exhibition in the Center of Vit贸ria-ES
The exhibition took place in the center of Vit贸ria and it was amazing to receive friends and meet new people to see my photographs, this experience has shaped me as an artist and photographer and inspired me to do new sessions always seeking to tell new imagery stories about the conceptual line that I believe to be my artistic trait.

Nature in natura is something that draws my attention as an artist. I live in Brazil, a country rich in natural resources, I always think and feel connected to it in the images.
In Natura
A few years ago I went to Reg锚ncia with some friends to photograph the Cabloco Bernardo party, an incredible experience. Seeing the Congo playing with bands from all over Eumesp铆rito Santo was fundamental for the films that I am developing today within the Afro-Esp铆rito Santo culture.

My photographs come up against what I experienced in Serra, in the neighborhood called Barcelona, in my first exhibition I made a point of portraying this experience of my hometown, which has a youth that really wants to grow even within the suburban economic structure.

Image spaces are those millisecond moments that the camera sensor registers either analog film or digital sensor.
The city of Serra continues to develop and violence is an issue that prevails in this city, young people are attracted to crime and stay in this dialectical relationship with life. Violence and education, what is the path we should take to build our lives?
I hope you enjoyed the little I shared of my exhibition and who knows, maybe one day we will see you in one of these exhibitions around the world. Thank you for the communication space, I appreciate the community. Hugs.
