Stamped sentiment
Subtle yet chic, this cluster of seven ginkgo leaves were painstakingly handmade and are accompanied by bira bira (aluminum flutters), which make a pleasant jingling sound from movement. Mounted and bound with pastel shades of yellow and green silk thread on a sturdy, double-pronged hairpin (which is thicker than my standard handmade hairpins).
A unique blue-green transparent glass, floating bits of tiny mica flakes and raised dimensional swirls all around create a graceful watery vibe.

In its sixth year, the Dutch Bank Urban Age Award is selecting projects and initiatives in the Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro. The prize was created to recognize and celebrate creative urban solutions, focusing on projects which benefit communities and residents, and improve the state of the built environment. Handmade Urbanism highlights 15 projects from Mumbai, São Paulo, Istanbul, Mexico City and South Africa, compiled from 2007-2012 Urban Age award winners. It´s objective is to reflect on these particular initiatives and on the construction of collective spaces through crowdsourced participation. What is the root of these initiatives? What are the instruments and tools used to achieve these goals?
In a series of interviews in these five major cities, Handmade Urbanism gives voice to diverse actors involved in related processes of urban design - government, community initiatives, academia, artists and cultural producers, as well as mediators. The exhibition also presents a series of original illustrations by Paulo Ayres, which profile the modes of operation, reveal the actors involved, the recourses, the tools and the situations created in these initiatives, offering a systematic analysis of the impact generated by these projects.
