Véio 2005

Directed by Adelina Pontual · Documentary · 20 min

On the outskirts of the city of Nossa Senhora da Glória, in the hinterland of the state of Sergipe, Northeast Brazil, we will find an unexpected open-air sculpture park. This unusual “art gallery” is the result of the work of Cícero Alves dos Santos, known as Véio, a farmer, artisan and sculptor. In it, Véio installed his Nation, his family, made up of common and mythological beings, animals and extraterrestrials.
