HOA TOUR is an artist-led, arts organization based in São Paulo, Brasil, founded in 2020 by Igi Lola Ayedun dedicated to latin-american contemporary art. Hosted everywhere (as long you have internet connexion), this place combines many emerging artist’s narratives with communication, exhibition, education, papo reto, studio practices and sales experience.
In this immersive website conceived as an exhibition, typefaces are used in order to display their plastic potentials. Apoc (Blaze Type), Garnett (Sharp Type) and Times are mixed and composed over video animations. Next to the voice-over guiding us through the website, there are animated text blocks moving laterally.
