The technique used for creating the murals is the one which gives the name of the exhibition, 'Anamorfosis'. The images are created over walls and shapes and they have sense only when we look it from a particular point of view. This technique is the one that Boa Mistura collective has used in several places as the passages of a brazilian favela, the domes of the Cebada Market in Madrid or others as Andalucía or the Knowledge City in Panamá.

January 2012. Brasilândia Favela, Sao Paulo.
Developed with support from the Cultural Office of the Spanish Embassy in Brazil.
Once installed in the favela and after a preliminary analysis of the community, defined as a framework alleys that serve as connecting elements in the urban fabric, known as "vielas" and "becos". Inspired by the words BELEZA and FIRMNESS, a greeting used by the inhabitants, were chosen the 5 words that best portray the favela to light their streets.
The work process was participatory, involving the neighbors in the transformation and improvement of their own living space.
