A linguagem visual do Raio que o parta no Bairro de São Brás, Belém-PA: geometria e organicidade

The “Raio que o parta” is a modern trend from Pará that is configured by the junction of architecture with the arts, marked by a symbolic and plastic language in its colorful panels formed by shards of tiles creating rays, arrows, geometric and organic figures on the facades. Knowing that the use of tiles conveys a communicative value, the research aims to analyze the aesthetic and formal aspects of the mosaics present in the examples of the São Brás Neighborhood, in Belém. With the data collected, 36 houses were identified with manifestation of the characteristics “Raio que o parta”, among which it was possible, through the analysis of their panels, to observe an expressive amount of visual aspects that were frequently repeated among the cataloged specimens. Given the results obtained, we contribute to the configuration of an image bank that will serve as motivation for disseminating this cultural expression from Pará, contributing to its appreciation and preservation.
