Art and creative endeavors are often a reflection of the space they inhabit. Vila Flávia and Vila Santa Inês, in São Paulo, Brazil, are no exception to this, as David Hallberg takes us on a visual journey of the stunning local art scene featuring artists from around the world. Locals have used art as a tool for socioeconomic development and an opportunity to engage youth and promote critical thinking. From urban street art to ceramics, David shows us how an urban space is transformed into a colourful and thriving community through art.
