Lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal.
She studied at Lisbon Fine art university and received her master of glass art & science in 2016.
The ultimate purpose of her artistic journey, to date, has been to understand how human networks and identities are formed and what their underlying structure is. Her works reflect her attempt to understand the meaning of network systems and, in particular, her role and position – as an individual node – in this complex web, as well as the nature of her artistic task as an interpreter of this all-encompassing network. Her works and thoughts stem from her belief that we must first attain a clear vision of ourselves to apprehend significant aspects of our world.
Therefore as a visual artist who uses glass as the primary material in her works, she tries to find herself while trying to master glass.
Glass is a material that can be soft or hard, Transparent or opaque, solid, or liquid. A living creature that you have to befriend with to be able to work with. However, as an artist, she uses each object that can show her concerns.
Her works exhibited as solo and group exhibitions in international galleries and institutions such as S12 Gallery, Bergen, Norway(2019). Redgate Gallery, Beijing, China(2019). National Museum of Natural History and Science Lisbon, Portugal(2018). The city museum, Almada, Portugal(2016).
