As we draw closer to the new year we’ve asked a very special guest every day to take a moment to reflect on 2018 and to tell us about one photograph that best captures the year for them. It’s a box of treats to surprise you with every day – and conjure our hopes and wishes for 2019. This is our way of sharing the sweetness of the season and of saying ‘Thank You’ to you for inspiring us throughout the year.
Today’s special guest:
Narcelio Grud, Brazilian Street Artist, sculptor, public interventionist and inventor. Founder of the Concreto Festival of International Urban Art, now in its 5th year in Fortaleza.
May the bells of 2019 chime new chords, may the sea wash and clean all that is needed and change the energy of the world!
May the fascism that shakes Brazil and other countries be swept by the firmness and tenderness of love.
And may we be strong, resistant and conscious in these times of struggle.
