Urban Age Award São Paulo
BioUrban
The project describes itself as active urban interventions in areas of socio-environmental degradation. It believes that through the aesthetics intervention you get to the heart of the problems of humans and the space inhabited, and elects as methodology, a residency project in areas where interventions are carried out. It works directly with the residents of the region with the ultimate aim of developing leadership and create micro healthy spaces within the points of social risk of São Paulo.
All material used in the project are coming from garbage of the neighborhood and eco points. The project is now in its second address in the suburb of Saúde District – the Mauro slum of more than 3,000 people. In addition to all work to improve the physical space, the project retrieves the identity of the residents through historicizing oral and audio-visual abstraction, creating thus points of culture.
