  • IMG_8824.jpg
  • The Prestes Maia occupation gate, closed, after the removal of all the families..It has been almost 5 years of occupation..Mixed feelings appeared while I photographed the main door of the building, now covered with concrete and blocks. If on a hand, important development and conquests had occurred in the debate and process about the city housing, calling attention for the social exclusion imposed by the real estate speculation and the preconception between social classes, on the other hand, looking to this door closed, and everything what it iconically represents, brings me some sadness..It was like looking a giant tomb with 22 floors, sealed up without life, in the heart of the city.
