"Pequenos Deslumbres" directs emotion and sensitivity. Each piece is the portrayal of strangers' faces whose thrilling stories are shared by Brian Baldrati (@isthisreal) on social media. The stories, starring the very people he interacts with, are represented solely through the technique of line art. "A line is the vector that connects two points in the simplest way possible." Therefore, both the line and Brian serve as connecting agents, weaving together audiences and turning anonymous stories into little gleams.

The drawings explore the subtlety of the line in their metaphorical narrative, suggesting emotions that go beyond the surface. Each artwork is a window into the souls of those portrayed, an invitation to contemplate the complexity and uniqueness of each individual.
