An exhibition by Brazilian artist, writer, and illustrator Roger Mello, one of the leading voices in contemporary children’s literature and visual storytelling. The exhibition presents illustrations from selected children’s books alongside embroidered works inspired by his visual narratives.
Mello’s work explores the relationship between image and storytelling, drawing from cultural memory, imagination, and everyday life. Themes of childhood, identity, memory, and the natural world run through the works, offering different ways of reading and experiencing visual narratives.
The exhibition offers an experience for the whole family, inviting children to travel through Mello’s illustrations and embroidered narratives while encouraging shared moments of discovery, imagination, and dialogue across generations.
Curated by Fabu Pires
