about
I am a multidisciplinary artist born in 1996 in Lisbon, currently living between Paris and Marseille.
My artistic journey began with a childhood fascination with ants, leading to big questions about space, movement, and adaptation. This curiosity evolved into a reflection on interspecies relationships and the hidden life in gardens, growing into a practice that moves between product design, sculpture, drawing and anthropology.
I am an observer and a quiet participant, someone who collects, speculates and imagines the possible narratives that emerge from overlooked and neglected objects, that I find mainly on the floor. I create experimental situations that invite ants (and viewers) into shifting roles of observer and participant.
Inspired by ant behavior, I am also exploring how frustration and humor intersect while attempting to share space across species, working mainly between fieldwork and fiction.
