About the Artwork:

“I wanted to make a parallel between race meaning racing and race as ethnicity for these bright scarlet people running away from their essence and origins, changing colors as they cross through a portal in a desperate search for survival.” – DEMÖ

About the Artist:

(Artist Bio)

Demontier Meireles, 28 years old, artist based in Brazil who is very inspired by queer culture, fashion, folklore and Japanese tradicional art. I love to play with shapes, forms and poses, I think there’s a lot of beauty in the ‘weird’ and the ‘strange’, I try to portray these quirks mixed with glamour, confidence and a bit of melancholy.
