In Rocinha, Walsh builds a dense, vertical mosaic of stacked architectural planes reminiscent of Rio’s hillside community. Vibrant rectangular blocks of ochre, teal, terra-cotta, and pale blue climb upward in tight rhythm, crowned by a clear strip of cerulean sky. The vertical canvas emphasizes scale and density, transforming urban sprawl into a rich tapestry of color, geometric balance, and lived-in structure.
