Brazilian street artist Alex Senna adorns walls around the world with large scale black and white murals of amusingly elongated characters that have a wonderful familiar feel to them. Several murals feature the warmth of a happy family - posing together, hugging each other or going for a bicycle ride, while the lone characters evoke a specific sense of purpose - hurrying down the stairs, crossing the street or just sitting on the grass with big eyes focused on the stars.

Alex Senna is an artist and illustrator from Sio Paulo, whose expressive, lanky characters bring softness to their urban setting. These characters and their interactions typically revolve around love and relationships, whether it be the romance between an elderly couple, playful young lovers, or feelings of lasting friendship. Senna's works invite their audiences to these intimate interactions and evoke the feeling of nostalgia.
