Marcelo is from Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Before becoming a photographer, he majored in Psychology and taught at colleges. He has a great interest in Documentary Photography and, especially, in Street Photography. Marcelo Santos walks through the streets of large cities, especially Belo Horizonte, where he lives, recording his spaces and characters, revealing the poetry that hides behind the prosaic urban scenes. The photobook Chão is made of colors, lights and fragments, which make the city what it is, a place of experience, passage and affections. The edition privileges the friction between these urban scenes, placing them side by side, in a continuous flow of encounters and disagreements.
