BIOGRAPHIE
I am a Brazilian artist based in Montreal, Canada. I have been working mostly in erasing people from photos and keeping them just for me, in this little jewelry box that is called memory. I use various techniques as computer interferes, seam and needlework. My career started in 2005, in Brazil, when I was doing my BA in design. I happen to cross the way of some marvelous individuals that would influence the rest of my life. They gave me the first taste of contemporary art; they taught me and inspired me. My work talks about disappearance, emptiness, and how we deal, or not, with it. The work also discusses the question of photography as a mean to connect to memory. And how we treat this object, now full with significance. I made exhibitions in Brazil, Lithuania and Germany. I won prizes and my work figures in private and institutional collections like the one from the Museum of Modern Art from Rio de Janeiro.
