ABOUT THE ARTWORK
It was a sunny beach day in Rio, I was in the sand talking about life with my girlfriend and watching the waves crashing. Suddenly, some black boys started to play in front of us and, for some unknown reason, they threw this one at the sand in a joyful way. He laughed and stood sit there, alone, watching the waves crashing like me and my girlfriend were. Even knowing he is a kid, this scene made me think about how black boys in Brazil use to grown up fast to take care of responsabilities and also use to preserve the joy as youngs and adults almost as a way of survival. This picture is about this age which is right before growing up.

João Victor Medeiros (Brazilian, 1996) is a photographer, director of photography and visual artist based in Juiz de Fora, working working across many genres to explore and document themes that gravitate around the youthful manifestation of Brazilian blackness. With a specialty in portraiture and documentary photography, João Victor works with consolidated names and on the rise of Brazilian art. In 2019, he marked a turning point in his career by attending his first international art fair, being one of the artists selected to the Chicago edition of The Other Art Fair. The two series of photos he took to the exhbition were well received: half of the works on display were sold. As soon as he returned from Chicago, João Victor was invited to join the rapper BK’s team as an official photographer. Since then, he has been a fundamental part of the artist's aesthetic decisions, contributing not only as a photographer but as a video artist, screenwriter and creative director.
