About
"Ten years ago, a bicycle took to the streets, equipped with a screen-printing station and a simple question: what happens when art leaves the studio and enters the public sphere as a tool for encounter?"
Atelier SER – Spontaneous Art Movement is a project focused on the creative expansion of the community and the democratization of access to artistic practices. It is led by visual artists Diogo deCalle and Bruno Lavos. Since its inception in 2016, the duo has dedicated itself to creating art with and for people—drawing upon socio-cultural relationships and collective memory as raw material, utilizing screen printing as their primary medium, and embracing the public space as their studio.
Inspired by Joseph Beuys’s premise that "everyone is an artist," the collective fosters encounters and creative exchanges through initiatives such as the "Bicicleta MANIFesta" (a mobile screen-printing bicycle), "Manifesto pela Leitura" (visual poetry), and "Mapa de Vontades" (collective cartography). Atelier SER offers experiences in aesthetic empowerment, sharing knowledge about screen printing and artisanal printmaking. Through these creative moments and shared dialogues, the project seeks to expand our poetic dimension and our sense of citizenship.
