Look at the postcard and see the pulse of multifaceted life that springs forth in the city that screams to be seen. Make an individual of those who wander in the crowd, invisible, curbside like a line towards places, never addresses. Return to the postcard and be moved by the beauty, lightness, subtlety of the world.

Along the way, Marcos Labanca, a citizen, saw and intervened in part of the march of this Foz do Iguaçu, which is now 110 years old. As a professional photojournalist, he goes beyond the act of capturing facts. His lenses are memory, denunciation, and words. The unspeakable is interpreted through images without the need for words.

Chuá, life singing

Majestic and imposing, the waters of the Iguaçu Falls enchant people from all over the world and unite two countries on the border, Brazil and Argentina.

Bright lights in Foz do Iguaçu seen, contemplated, admired and praised.

City screams in plain sight

Nature on the road that doubles

Clown nose

Art liberates and transports whenever the clown makes the big or small child that lives in the square of each being laugh.

Waterfall of the river that looks like the sea

Nature painted the stream that falls into the river that is the size of the sea as art. It is up to human action to remove the excess so as not to lose the work.

Paranazão of the “paranauês”

Silhouette of the river with many waters and stories, between banks that defy the formal treaties of governments, of men in their laws and states.
