Multidisciplinary artist born in Lisbon. Formally an industrial designer, my professional experience as a designer began on the theater stage department and later on sets for film and editorials. I bring both my academic and my experience as production designer to my artistic discipline on this ópera prima collection titled SETS. By deliberately defying ergonomics and logic, my SETS serve as a metaphor for both the impermanent nature of film sets, their illusion of reality and the notion of utility. The results are tridimensional Dadaist artifacts. Through discernment interpretations become Surreal. Wood, lambskin and light are the primary materials I use in my sculptures and scenography for photography and photomontages that, in occasions, include performance as a prop.
My work continues in Los Angeles my home for the past ten years.
