The Circulando project is a result of images of Rio de Janeiro, focusing on Pedra da Gávea a mountain that can be viewed from anywhere in the city (images 1 to 4). In 2011, the same process of Circulando was explored in Calgary, Canada (images 5 to 11). This serie of photographs was exhibited during the st[art] residency @ Art Central, April to June, 2012. Through the month of July, 2012, this work was shown at Art Loop @ Art Central, Calgary, Canada (images 1 to 11). Following the same Circulando procedure and inspired by Calgary’s ongoing urban transformation, I photographed the LRT Shaganappi Station construction sites during the years of 2011-2012. These photos were re-photographed in different areas of construction sites to create new images. Images 12 and 13 were part of the Headlines Exhibition through the Alberta Society of Arts, 2016
