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.

Hora Certa marks the observation of a lapsed present, bearing a state of suspension and expectation of a blurred future: the exhibition presents a series of recent photographs taken in Covilhã, Hong Kong, Macao, Mafra, Montreal, Torres Vedras, the islands of Madeira and the Azores, accompanied by a series of ready mades.
