What is The FUXICO Project?
The FUXICO Project is an ongoing social practice project spearheaded by artist Davi Leventhal and curator Anna Pillow. The project began as an idea for a collaborative exhibition with Leventhal’s long-time friend and fellow artist Julia Equi, and has grown from to include the original exhibition, site-specific installations, and an ongoing series of public workshops.
The goal of the project is to engage and enliven communities while sharing the fuxico tradition with the world. For us, each fuxico made through the project represents a connection made and a community strengthened.

The practice of making fuxicos (foo-SHEEH-kohs) comes from the Northeast of Brazil, but you have probably seen them before. These fabric flowers are used to embellish everyday items like blankets, pillow cases, and pot holders, but have also appeared on fashion runways. Also known as suffolk puffs or fabric yo-yos, fuxicos are simple to make and add a charmingly handmade touch wherever they are used.
