Copacabana.

This beach is blessed by the image of a saint, the
Virgin of Copacabana, who came from Bolivia in the
seventeenth century. The saint gave not only her name
but her blessing on a place that eventually became
synonymous with joy, diversity and natural beauty.
Every day, tourists and locals alike come together to
enjoy themselves; lie in the sun, relax, socialize and
have a good time. In short, Copacabana is the “Copa
(Cup)” of Rio de Janeiro.

The notion of the beach, however, has another side.
Pleasure unfortunately often goes together with excess;
too much sun, too much food, and too much fun.
Excessive consumption combined with a sedentary
lifestyle has brought on health problems in Brazil -
particularly obesity.

Despite our country's reputed love for movement in
dance and football, we are slowing down. In fact,
one-third of our population does not dispense fatty
meat and about 53% consume whole milk regularly; it
was expected that more than half of the nation is
overweight.

‘Copa na Copa’ takes a look at Copacabana during the
World Cup 2014 on a different light. Rather than
seeing the “Little Princess of the Sea” as a tourist
mecca, my photographs present one of the oldest
neighborhoods of the city and its population - around
30% of the residents are elderly - showing the beach in
an ironic and amusing way, portrays an authentic
beauty and reflects the way we Brazilians are living our
lives.
