Signed Print Summer in Rio de Janeiro Abstract Art, "Urban Summer"
"This xilogravure print is about that summer day when Rio de Janeiro, where I live and work, registered over 40°C (104°F)," explains Andre de Miranda. "The hot breeze seemed to melt everything, that's why I created the illusion of partitioned glass." In orange and green, this woodcut print is part of a limited edition.
Titled "Verão urbano" in Portuguese.
