HVA
Hermes Visual Arts is an independent artist-run space where art practice and discussion are connected within an environment that fosters experience exchanges.
The art ecosystem of São Paulo that I was able to experience during my time is generative, self-organised, and expansive. As art is inherently connected with the historical, social, and political landscape it is a lens (for me) to locate myself. Especially helpful in a complex environment like São Paulo. Speaking to artists, collectives, and curators from public to private and communal spaces... walking through streets, parks, and neighborhoods. Looking at art, architecture, and design. Hearing the soundscape of the city, smelling, and tasting - all part of my research.
