SÓ FACHADA

Portugal

For João Arrochinho (b. 1984) the interest in manual arts soon manifested itself through drawing and working with wood. But architecture and model making were an old dream that he would recover after a few years working in the field of Economics, when the opportunity arose to work in an artistic production studio, where he got familiar with various projects and techniques, such as sculpture and painting, thus opening the way for the universe of architectural models, work that he continues to do today.


At the same time and responding to a need for personal expression, in 2018 he created the SóFachada project, where he works with models, but where he finds the freedom to deconstruct them. These "Dioramas" try to reflect the raw urban reality, immense in details and details, some of them unorthodox, but which we cannot ignore.
