In PERVERT (2026), an arm-wrestling scene is stitched onto a black leather surface. The gesture, commonly associated with competition and the display of strength, reveals itself as ambiguous, oscillating between confrontation, complicity, and contact. The title suggests a shift in meaning and, without resolving this tension, questions the staging of the desire of the other, the mechanisms of subversion, and the normative rituals that produce and regulate masculinity.
Juno B (1982) is a transdisciplinary artist based in São Paulo. His practice moves between transspecific fictions and mutations in dialogue with post-industrial adaptive landscapes, challenging notions of the human factor in these contexts. Through video, photography, sculptural objects, and immersive installations, his work proposes conceptual and visual syntheses rooted in gestures of fabulation and magic. Torn, layered, or twisted, the work acquires new interpretive layers, like a body that refuses to be reduced to a single function.
In 2024/2025, Juno B was one of the artists selected for the 38º Panorama da Arte Brasileira at Museu de Arte Moderna de São Paulo. He has taken part in group exhibitions at KADIST, FMAC (Collection d’art contemporain — Ville de Genève), Pinacoteca de São Paulo, and Pinacoteca do Ceará, among others. In 2023, he was selected for Contra flecha arqueia mas não quebra at Almeida & Dale. He participated in the 2021 Pivô Pesquisa program, was nominated for the Prêmio PIPA (2022), and was one of the winners of 100 Artists, organized by Artlink and SüdKulturFonds (2022). He has attended artist residencies in Brazil, Bolivia, and Switzerland.
