As Chamas Afundaram-se no Interior das Velas Lisbon, 2027

An oval is a geometric figure correlated with a womb format, where liquid inhabited, and we belonged - a sensorial transmission. Since then, I have lived in a constant body-matter relationship. It progresses by developing environments and allowing audiences to experience them.

Perception is the focus of my narrative scenarios based on body research, and site-specific becomes site-sensitive. I’m a magnifying glass that expands the invisible into an abundant architectural macrosphere. My work is based on phenomenology, founded on simple geometries and experimental installations through engineering processes. They materialise as sculptures made of construction materials, contaminating one another through atmospheric osmosis. According to physics, sound is suggested as an instrument, and light offers luminous experiences.

My production aims to immerse the public in all their feelings to create a critical point of view about something that is now an ambience.
