EN SEDE (2021 - ongoing) is a development/recut of my first long-term project Antes de Ir (2018 - ongoing), next to the "Vale dos Pinheiros" Housecomplex gate is one of the only public leisure places in the Pq. Pinheiros neighborhood (and maybe Taboão da Serra) nicknamed “SEDE" by the regulars. Many times I have photographed outside the condominium, around the bridge and my old school, but only in May last year I started to frequent the place (which includes a park, courts and skate lanes) and photograph some groups of teenagers and young people. Outside the set they have more freedom and get together with friends from all other neighborhoods in the municipality. I have made friends with some of them and have followed their daily meetings and parties there. In Portuguese it is an ambiguous name: a local for those who know it, "SEDE" means a meeting place. But also as a "thirst" of those who have a voracious desire for something, as we always have in adolescence and youth.
