Paris meets Rio in this story marking the França-Brasil 2025 season
“Born from a meeting of gazes, a visual dialogue emerges between the peripheral aesthetics of Paris and Rio, between distance and intimacy – a gesture of connection across continents"
“Photographed in Saint-Ouen, we seek to reaffirm the creative pulse of the margins – where beauty grows from resilience, and where Black bodies reclaim space… These images embody the strength of diasporic youth, oscillating between memory and re-existence, ancestry and invention"
“This work is a bridge, a rhythm, a conversation between two Souths – one that carries the warmth of Rio’s hills into the cool light of Parisian mornings"
