She creates poetry through her illustrations, always focusing on femininity and what that entails. enhancing Her art is inclusive, sensual, and body-positive. In this collab we wanted to showcase elements of the female body and of Brazilian botany, in two models: Scarabeus Orquidea Mariposa and Apis Açaí. Our first collab presented and sold to the international market.

INSECTA
+ FARM

Farm, a clothing line that embodies the feminine spirit and vibrant colors of Rio de Janeiro, told us it was rethinking its production processes and invited us to resignify some stalled parts. It spanned almost 2 years of dialogue, with an open chest and co-construction. If the greenest product is the one that already exists, why not join forces so that our message reaches more people? We panned leftover pieces and fabrics from past Farm collections and turned them into shoes. It's a sandal made of clothes!

REVOADA

Collab Insecta + Revoada came from the union of two female companies. Revoada was born to think of design as a way to reinvent what is already out there. The main raw material is what a lot of people would call garbage: tire chambers and umbrella nylon. Two models of shoes were created, and besides them, some waterproof, reversible and folding jackets that fit inside the pocket.
