Sonia J., is a visual artist based in Guarda, Portugal. Her practice focuses on painting as a material and physical field shaped by accumulation, pressure and partial erasure. Working primarily with mixed media on canvas, she constructs stratified surfaces where texture, abrasion and subtle luminosity emerge through process rather than representation.
Her work balances control and disruption, developing a restrained visual language that allows moments of tension and residue to remain unresolved. Rather than narrative or figurative reference, the paintings invite a direct engagement with matter, time and surface.
She has participated in international exhibitions and art fairs across Europe and has been selected for curated programs including Top Selection Berlin by BBA Gallery. Her work is held in private collections and presented on international contemporary art platforms.
