I'm using photography as a way to investigate and try to understand these seas. I attempted to make them more artificial and less natural.

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.

Selected Artworks
For many years there were no painters and at certain times painting was forgotten. It is a more lonely and time-consuming job and maybe many artists are not up to it or maybe everyone is sick of painting.
Pedro Casqueiro in conversation with Nuno Crespo for Público.
I lived in a lot of houses as a child. So, it's part of my memories, this kind of not belonging anywhere, always moving. And maybe that's why this aspect of this study is so important, for me, of the space where I lived, it's something of mine and I've always made projects that had to do with the space in which I lived.
