Description: BELEZA (BEAUTY) is the first book by photographer Dalila Coelho, a native of Belo Horizonte. The publication is divided into two chapters. In the first photographic series "Aesthetic Rituals of the Periphery", registers workers and aesthetic spaces frequented by the periphery. These photos were taken under the guidance of photographer and curator Joaquim Paiva during the 2020 International Photography Festival Photo Marathon. In the second chapter, the photographic series "It's summer all year round", Dalila walks through the outskirts of Belo Horizonte, portraying the practice of tanning with insulating tape. In the series produced between July and October 2019, the photographer toured three tanning salons located in different peripheries of the capital: Bronze da Ludy, in the Floramar neighborhood, in the North region, Tamara Bronze, in the Álvaro Camargos neighborhood, in the Northwest region, and Atrevida Bronze, in the Novo Glória neighborhood, also in the Northwest region. The title "It's summer all year round" refers to the suspension in time lived in tanning salons, in which it is enough the presence of the sun for the slabs to be crowded with customers lying in a ritualistic process of beauty with the unique purpose of acquiring tanning marks on their skin.
