Rio de Janeiro Metro Slate Art – Limited Laser-Engraved Urban Rail Edition
The Rio Metro—urban movement between a dense metropolis, underground spaces and Brazilian street culture.
Rio de Janeiro is frequently represented through beaches, mountains and iconic panoramas. Beneath and between these familiar images exists another city of platforms, tunnels, passageways, concrete surfaces and daily movement. The Metro connects important districts and introduces a technical urban rhythm into the Brazilian metropolis.
The Rio de Janeiro Edition transfers this side of the city onto natural black slate. At its centre is a detailed full side-view illustration of a Rio Metro train. Its windows, doors, carriage structure and technical linework have been developed specifically for clear laser engraving.
The light engraving creates a strong contrast against the dark stone. This combination of precise train artwork and rough natural slate connects modern infrastructure with the direct, layered urban character of Rio de Janeiro.
The Rio de Janeiro Edition is strictly limited to only 25 pieces worldwide. Each plaque is individually numbered 01/25 to 25/25 on the reverse and supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Rio beyond its conventional postcard imagery:
This edition is made for Metro enthusiasts, train writers, graffiti and street-art fans, Rio lovers and collectors of international transit culture. It presents the city through its tracks, platforms, tunnels and urban transition spaces.
The artwork is an independent artistic interpretation of Rio de Janeiro Metro culture. It contains no official operator logos, line colours, route numbers or line identifiers and is not affiliated with any transport company.
Because every plaque is made from genuine natural slate, its surface, edges, stone texture and engraving brightness will vary slightly. These natural differences make each of the 25 pieces unique.
You will receive one laser-engraved Rio de Janeiro slate plaque with its Certificate of Authenticity. Display stands, frames and decorative props are not included unless explicitly listed.
