Petite Poupée7

Bomb It ran into Petite Poupée7 in Sao Paulo Brazil at our screening in the Sao Paulo International Film Fest.

We were impressed by this woman’s style. From Rio, this artist created her alter-ego Petite Poupée7 after a stay in Paris inspired her to paint autobiographical dolls, which have gained a life of their own. You can find her feminine graffiti and street art murals on the urban walls of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.

To see more of her work visit her website:

If you are in Los Angles be sure to go check out her group show to see her work for yourself !
