Eneri is a São Paulo-based visual artist whose practice is rooted in both pixo and Quimbanda. Born and raised in São Paulo, she began moving through baile funks, reggae parties, rap battles, and pixo gatherings as a teenager, first encountering pixo as a living urban culture before becoming an active participant herself. In 2013, she began writing on the city, becoming part of a generation of pixadoras committed to breaking gender barriers and disputing who has the right to occupy and transform urban space.

Pixo is a transgressive cultural and visual movement that emerged in São Paulo in the 1980s. Although sometimes loosely associated with other street art movements developed elsewhere, it established its own language from within Brazil, creating internal references, codes, and techniques that broke with the long-standing importation of artistic models from Europe and the United States. Born in a city as chaotic, unequal, and aggressive as São Paulo, pixo became a radical form of inscription, confrontation, and presence in public space, later spreading across much of Brazil and generating distinct identities, styles, and practices from region to region.
 

In some of its most extreme expressions, pixadores climb buildings from the outside without safety equipment, using only their bodies and the architecture itself to leave their mark on the city. This legacy continues in her work through writing, gesture, spatial intervention, and the body’s relationship to conflict, structure, and urban life.
