Exhibition Opening

Her work is featured in the following collections: Museu do Chiado, Serralves Foundation, Museu de Arte Contemporânea do Funchal, EDP Foundation, Coleção António Cachola and also the Coleção Banco Privado. She received the Prémio União Latina prize in 2001.From the principles of assemblage, intervened appropriation and abstract construction, the artist creates objects that appeal to the careful reading of their own processes, surprise and intrinsic nature. Isolated or conceived for dialogues in the space, they have the presence and the tactile appeal of sculpture, but also the resourcefulness of drawing and the intriguing challenge of their latent symbolic reference.

Artist Bio

"Linha do Horizonte, fronteira, orla.

três tiras de papel sobre três paredes,  altar de celulose.

papel de parede.

Beco sem saída. Cú de saco.

O outro lado do espelho. Especulo.  Miragem.

Coelhos procuram Alices. é o trabalho deles.

O reflexo deformado de um Narciso zarolho.

A mente é o Grande Masturbador! Sim, senhor, o caldeirão sempre aceso.

Olhem para mim, Olhem para mim, Olhem para mim.

Aqui estou eu em cima desta prancha, a 8 metros de altura, a mergulhar na piscina do inconsciente. Olhem para mim."
