Gift of the Periphery
DOM DA PERIFERIA
In 2006 Ahmet Polat photographed the story of four young designers who lived on the outskirts of the slum of Campo Limpo, in São Paulo, accompanying them in their daily routine to get a place in the fashion industry. Six years later, the artist goes back to Sao Paulo to rediscover the four designers (Mariana, Leandro, Bruna and João Carlos) to work together and present their stories in the exhibition “Gift of the Periphery” which was curated by the photographer Ahmet Polat.
