Streets That Never Sleep

Ruas que Nunca Dormem

Mixed media on canvas80 × 50 cmHeight × width · canvas

In this painting, I sought to capture New York’s unstoppable energy, where traffic and skyscrapers create their own rhythm. I wanted to convey the city’s intensity through my semi-figurative, semi-abstract style, using lines and geometric forms to suggest movement. The impasto adds texture to the light and the harmonious chaos of these streets that never sleep.
