I am a visual artist working with ecologies of knowledge and representation. In my research-based practice, I understand the term ecology as a metaphor to establish relationships between images, ideas, and their social and natural environments. My work is informed by theory and an interdisciplinary approach, often leading me to deal with concepts from anthropology, economics, or biology. Using different media — like video installation, 3d animation, and drawing — I am interested in narratives that denaturalize ‘reality’ and show the contingencies of history and politics.
Besides my artistic practice, I co-programmed Art & Anthropology, a series of film screenings at the Ethnographic Museum in Zurich and was the founder of Dietikon Projektraum, a contemporary art space exploring the relationships of local and global narratives. In 2020, I co-curated al_vista, the exhibition space from Fine Arts at ZHdK.
I studied architecture and visual arts in Lisbon, Tampere, and Rome. In 2021, I concluded my master’s in Fine Arts at ZHdK in Zurich. I was born in Lisbon and live in Zurich.
