Dear Shaded Viewers,
The day started with the screening of SHOWstudio to a packed room at Iguatemi FilmeFashion Festival. Images below are from my 2 favourite films . The festival ends tomorrow night.

Then it was off to Fuxique with accessory designer Guto Neves. I had him showing me his work in the car and then when we got to Fuxique we had the lovely Laura modeling for us.
The owner
Dino bought this t-shirt and my eye went to this toilet seat cover.

Alexandra was recording our visit for her blog. A bedspread that celebrated Frieda Khalo.

Loved this shop, the dolls were made by people living without electricty until recently so no electricity, no TV. All of their dolls faces looked like their friends, now they have TV.
A visit to Karina Mota de Oliveira at Surface to Air. A few years ago Surface to Air did a Passerby project where Santiago, the art director/photographer at S2A, photographed people passing by the shop. One rainy day he photographed me and Jeremy turned it into an illustration, Karina showed me that I was pasted to their wall.

We spent the afternoon with Laura and ended up back at her apartment and then te apartment of her neighbor, the accessory designer, Francesca Botera, we liked the house accross the street
Then it was off to an art opening at Triptyque where we ran into Jeff from Vogue Brazil.
