Design de estamparia como representação do patrimônio histórico de Barbalha.

Abstract

This work aims to study and develop prints and graphic patterns using aesthetic and architectural elements from the city of Barbalha-CE, in order to increase the city's visibility through the representation of its regional culture, using iconography and symbols abundantly perceived in the city's historical center. To this end, the methodological procedure used consists of an adaptation of the ideas and concepts of designer Renata Rubim, who has a strong influence in the field of surface design and develops ideas based on observation and the use of "clues" from a visual reference. In the end, several visual elements were obtained that underwent a study of form, color, and positioning, thus forming a collection of five prints that refer to the architecture and culture of the city of Barbalha and strengthen the narrative of local history, increasing regional visibility and attracting people and encouraging tourism to learn about the traditions of the Cariri region.
