DUA BULAN sebelum upacara pembukaan Piala Dunia, fotografer Italia Edoardo Delille dan Gabriele Galimberti melakukan perjalanan ke Brasil untuk mengikuti jejak warga Rio de Janeiro, menangkap kegembiraan mereka, semangat dan keunikan.

"Jiwa Brasil menari," kata Delille. "Ini sejenis dengan tari samba yang dapat Anda temukan di kaki seorang gadis dari Leblon ke kaki seorang gadis di favela."

Delille dan Galimberti tidak perlu pergi jauh untuk menangkap apa yang mereka cari.

Setiap seri foto menghasilkan pola, tubuh, produk, kepribadian dan semua hal-Brasil, seperti dilansir MailOnline.

Beberapa foto dilakukan di studio, beberapa lainnya di tempat kejadian dan beberapa diambil dengan kamera resolusi tinggi dari ketinggian hampir 40 meter.

"Kami berjalan melalui favela, pantai dan daerah tersembunyi, di mana-mana untuk untuk menemukan sosok-sosok stereotip warga Brasil. Itu benar-benar menyenangkan, karena Anda memulai dengan ide dan menyadari banyak hal kontras di berbagai tempat," kata Delille.

"Seperti warga Italia, kami selalu senang pergi ke Brasil, menghargai humor dan kegembiraan mereka untuk hidup," kata Delille. "Mereka adalah orang-orang yang sangat lucu dengan rasa humor."


TWO MONTHS before the World Cup opening ceremony, Italian photographers Edoardo Delille and Gabriele Galimberti travelled to Brazil to follow in the footsteps of Rio de Janeiro's residents, capturing their exuberance, vibrancy and uniqueness.

'The soul of Brazil is dancing,' Delille said. 'It's the same sort of samba dance you can find in the feet of a posh girl from Leblon to the feet of a girl in the favela.'

Delille and Galimberti didn't have to go far to capture what they were looking for.

Each series of photos produces a pattern, of bodies, products, personalities and all-things Brazilian.

Some of the photos were shot in a studio, some were shot on scene and some were taken with a high-definition camera that flew nearly 100 feet into the sky.

'We walked through favelas, beaches and hidden areas, everywhere possible to find those stereotypes. ... It was really fun, because you start off with an idea and realize the place is totally opposite,' Delille said.

'What looked like a stereotype became a universal connection.

'As Italians, we always have a great time going to Brazil, appreciating their humour and joy for life,' Delille said. 'They are very funny people with a great sense of humour.'
