Guilherme Cirino started photographing athletes during the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. Inspired by photos which the athletes used to post on their instagram accounts and a love for artists focusing on men’s photography, he soon started attending more volleyball games and capturing different nuances of the athletes during the matches. I have been following his work on social media for a while, and asked him to put together a portfolio of images for Made In Brazil, this time featuring swimmers shot in his native town of Belo Horizonte.
