Artist Statement

Ligia Teixeira Sato is a São Paulo-born artist interested in urban and photography exploration. Growing up amidst the streets of the largest city in Brazil, she found a sense of freedom and belonging in its rushed chaos. This environment started her fascination for urban and architectural details, motivating her to capture the subtleties that exist within the urban landscape. Through Sato's photography, she aims to delve into the themes of urban lifestyle and the challenges it presents. Sato graduated from the University of São Paulo with a degree in design, and her work predominantly focuses on abstract and geometric compositions within urban contexts.
