Title: Under the Arches – Lapa, Rio de Janeiro
Photographer notes:
Beneath the iconic arches of Lapa, Rio de Janeiro, life pulses with a vibrant, unfiltered energy. This is where the city comes alive, where street caipirinhas flow, music echoes through the night, and people from all walks of life gather to celebrate and connect. Lapa is a crossroads, a place where boundaries blur and everyone is free to be themselves. As I wandered past the arches, I caught sight of a solitary figure, someone simply existing in their own unique way, tending to daily chores amidst the lively chaos. In this fleeting moment, framed by the historic arches, the spirit of Lapa shines through: a celebration of individuality, community, and the everyday magic found in simply being yourself.
