(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.
