the streets; ENVIRONMENT


Augusta st. is one of the most well known streets of São Paulo.
Augusta st. crosses the most famous avenues of the city: The Paulista Av.
Paulista Av. divides Augusta st. in two, and this division can be identified as social, as well as geographic.
Different from the Brazilian social cliché scenario, in which poor people live side by side with the riches class of the country not in a very harmonious way, the most characteristic urban types walk all over both sides of Augusta.
One side in bohemian, underground, and habited by prostitutes.

The other, known as ‘Jardins’ (in english 'Gardens'), is a place for fashion people and well born ‘alternative’ types. From time to time a typical habitant from one side must visit the other", tell us Eli Golande, "artist for experiences" to grupoArac.
