Synopsis

Physiognomies is a sketchbook of faces, gestures and behavior. Drawn in India ink, charcoal and pastel, these studies explore how a human face holds weight, shadow and tension, and how a single gesture can reveal what words hide.

Volume 01 gathers drawings in four chapters, beginning with Mass: the density of ink and charcoal, the corner of the eye, the mouth that waits, the weight of the head. Each plate is paired with short field notes, as if the pages were pulled straight from the artist’s notebook.

The work of Jayme Lago Mestieri, an architect and visual artist, who has spent two decades drawing people alongside buildings. A book for artists, designers and anyone who looks at faces closely.

Jayme Lago Mestieri é arquiteto, fundador e sócio-diretor da JLM Arquitetura, em São Paulo. Em mais de 22 anos de prática, o escritório entregou cerca de 1,5 milhão de m², com destaque para shopping centers e seus retrofits, hotelaria, infraestrutura e concessões rodoviárias, atacarejo e residências de alto padrão.

Ao longo dessa trajetória, desenvolveu um olhar atento à relação entre o espaço construído e o comportamento das pessoas: como uma praça, um corredor ou uma fachada mudam a maneira de viver, comprar, esperar e se encontrar. Esse olhar está em "Sobre Arquitetura e Comportamento", que reúne notas de um arquiteto sobre a cidade que habitamos.

Paralelamente à arquitetura, Jayme é artista visual. Seu trabalho em nanquim, pastel e carvão explora o retrato expressivo e a fisionomia humana.
