Olympic Favela Edition 1 of 5 Artist Statement - In 2006 I followed news of the infamous destruction of Beijing’s historic Qianmen district ahead of the 2008 Olympic Games. The fact that an event which is to embody the spirit of unity directly causes the destruction of historic neighborhoods and removal of thousands of residents struck me deeply. Olympic Favela is a photography and video project that visualizes the effects of forced removal of residents in 14 of Rio de Janeiro’s favelas, implemented by the city government in preparation for the 2016 Olympic Games. The hardcover book OLYMPIC FAVELA was published by Damiani/ARTbook in 2014. The documentary film OLYMPIC FAVELA premiered at the Seattle Intl. Film festival in 2016. www.olympicfavela.com
