During culture week, Brazil class looked at the work of the Brazilian artist Beatriz Milhazes. She is a collage artist and painter who uses very colourful materials to create pictures. She is influenced by the tropical flowers and plants near her home in Brazil, and also the carnivals and culture of Brazil. She uses these inspiring places and experiences, turning them into bright, clashing colours or simple shapes. Beatriz Milhazes uses shapes in different sizes and overlaps them to create images. Here are their designs.
