I have worked with journalist and writer Fábio Monteiro, in this award-winning project A Construção do Mundo. I made the illustrations for this inventive, subversive and complex narrative. I tried to visually expand the universe contained in words, letting spaces open for readers to interpret and create a vision of their own. There is also the possibility of mental playing with some games inserted in the visuals. 
The illustrations were mainly painted and stamped with gouache inks over paper and had some final digital editing.
