New York
This April, without the wind and a bit less cold than Chicago, New York displayed most of the time a beautiful blue sky and a warm Spring sun.
I´m posting here some aleatory images among hundreds I brought home in my camera and in my memory.
First stop: Metropolitan Museum of Art

Flower Parade
Some additional information about the project I mentioned in the previous post
The show Welcome to Spring is an urban interference to which 20 artists from Rio de Janeiro and 20 from Sao Paulo were invited to customize an iron structure of a stylized flower freely, linking the image of spring to the lauching of a Johnson Company product.
After the show, the flowers will be auctioned and part of the proceeds will go to charity institutions.
The show will be on till October 23rd.
My flower was installed in Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas district.
Watch the creative process and installation:
