Prazer, sou a Gisela

Nice to meet you, I'm Gisela.

Jan 31, 2025

Hi! How are you? My name is Gisela Gueiros, I'm a fan and friend of Maria Helena. I've lived in New York for 18 years, where I came to study and work with art. Here, I organize guided tours of Manhattan galleries ( @giselagueiros ), write a newsletter ( Gisela's Hottest Takes ) and founded a traveling gallery ( @giselaprojects ).


I have some passions that move my life, besides art, of course – trees, hiking, music, poetry, Mediterranean food, curious friends, my twin sons, the cities of São Paulo and NYC, yoga, and people. That's right! I love people. I often say that people, for me, are landscape. A “place” where I like to be.


So, I start writing on the MHSTUDIOS blog with a question for you, reader: what are some of your passions – what moves you?


If you’re here on this page, I imagine that “handmade” is one of the things that moves you. I’m going to write my next contribution to this page on this topic. I’m deeply interested in everything that involves a certain degree of “craftsmanship” — in the broadest sense of the word. If you can see that it was made by a human, versus a machine, that’s it – I like it more :)


I think that's it for today. I wanted to introduce myself and get to know you a little bit. It will be a pleasure to share my perplexities and discoveries with you here. Thanks for the invitation, MH!

xx,

Gisela.
