Self Portrait Door2013mixed technique
self-portrait door
The Self-portrait door has, in its internal side, a series of self-portraits
and in its external side three portraits of the artist made by
collaborators. Explanatory texts accompany the drawings and
paintings. The door is a metaphor of a transparent intimacy openness
(there is an inscription ‘room to draw’), which invites the viewer to get
to know the artist in an introspective way, through allegorical self
images and abstract concepts of the self.

Filho Veado2013installation with photography, mirror and drawings
deer son
The word for “deer” in portuguese refers
both to the animal and to a male
homossexual. The polysemy in the term is
the central point of the installation. It is
about dealing wth homossexuality in a
repressive family’s context.

The theme of copy/authorship is permanent in
my artistic investigation. This piece of work
consists in an assembly of copies made out of
varied Quino’s pieces and the unfinished lady is
a trial to copy Toulouse Lautrec’s La Toillet.
