IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT ADVERTISING
I’ve been passionate about different creative processes since I was a teenager. It started in theater, where I spent more than ten years exploring different roles, especially playwriting.
Storytelling has always been at the center of everything I do. Over time, I found new ways to explore it, including translating narrative into physical form through tapestry and textile work.
I developed a passion for crafting acetate spectacles, shaping the most intimate canvas there is: our faces.
That same interest in human expression led me to work as a Director of Actors, coaching performers individually for a short film.
Eventually, storytelling found yet another form in a children’s book about emotional bonds and love. A metaphor about attachment, connection, and learning how to let go.
STORIES MADE OF ACETATE
I realized I could tell stories through the most intimate canvas there is: the face. I stepped into the world of lunetiers, handcrafting bespoke spectacles from acetate. A way of shaping self expression by hand in an increasingly automated world.
SPHINX SPECTACLES
Inspired by the silent forms of the desert, the piece emerges from the meeting of mystery and structure. It echoes creatures that are half lion, half human.
The front cutouts evoke an ancestral figure. The temples end in joints that meet these marks, as if the Sphinx resolved its own enigma.
“NEBULA” SPECTACLES
Nebula is cosmic dust suspended in interstellar space.
The piece draws on the idea of a universe still taking shape, where light and matter begin organizing into new structures.
Rounded lenses evoke celestial bodies in suspension. The double bridge creates a structural connection between them, suggesting a gravitational bond between stars. Matter in its raw state, refined until it becomes structure.
“VIGA 01” SPECTACLES
The piece is inspired by the Brutalist movement, where material, weight, and construction become language.
The screws on the front reinforce the intention of an object that is not afraid to expose its own structure. The temples are carved into planes and steps. The red tip marks its limit, like an architectural signal indicating where the beam ends.
Nothing is hidden. Nothing tries to disappear.
“Blue Sapphire” Spectacles
Inspired by blue sapphires, born from the meeting of opposites:
sharp angles that bring structure, organic forms that allow light to flow.
Each facet of the acetate is treated like a stone, hand-cut and polished until it finds balance between rigor and fluidity.
An object that does not seek perfection, because it chooses to be alive.
STORIES MADE OF WOOL
It was surprising to discover how much meaning can be stitched into wool, giving birth to a tapestry. A completely different creative process, one that required learning the craft itself in order to communicate a full narrative in a single frame. No words. No letters. Just one object, meant to catch the eye and linger in memory.
PLAYWRITING - SOBRE O FIM
(ABOUT THE END)
(THEATER PLAY - DURATION: 50 min)
AUTHOR: DAVI SABRY
DIRECTOR: LUCAS SANCHO
CAST: LUCAS SANCHO AND ROBERTO REZENDE
SYNOPSIS
Petrus, Tito, and the world are ending.
Surrounded by moving boxes, the end of their relationship coincides with a catastrophe of unknown proportions. Snow falls where it should not. Outside, the world disappears beneath ice and silence.
Unable to leave the apartment they once shared, the couple becomes trapped inside the ruins of their own intimacy. Scene after scene, fragments of their relationship emerge: affection, violence, desire, exhaustion, dependency.
What begins as the portrait of an intimate collapse gradually expands into something larger. A visceral and poetic portrait of love at its limit, overflowing from the couple into the collapse of the world itself.
A love letter in reverse.
A love letter about the end.

SYNOPSIS
Ana and Him inhabit a relationship with an expiration date: just twenty-four hours. At the center of the stage, an hourglass stands still and unforgiving, marking the time that remains.
The same sand that counts the passing seconds covers their bodies. With every gesture, it slips away, releasing another centimeter of time.
The play unfolds through digressions: childhood, the intuition of death, the persistence of life, and the imperfect ways two bodies attempt to coexist. Until the inevitable truth emerges: a love that can survive only one more day.
