I create my work through a sensitive and attentive approach, based on listening and building partnerships. I work between Brazil and Portugal, collaborating with cultural institutions, publishers, design agencies and independent initiatives.
Editorial design
Graphic design projects for books, magazines, catalogues, and educational and cultural publications, with a focus on readability, the physical qualities of the printed material, and craftsmanship as part of the graphic and poetic narrative.
View examples of editorial design and author-led projects.
Visual identity
Visual identities for events, festivals, exhibitions, cultural projects and creative initiatives. Each identity is developed by carefully considering the context, the project’s concept and its target audience.
View visual identity projects.
Participatory art projects
Participatory art projects that bring together design, art, literature and collaborative processes, built on encounter, exchange and collective creation, in dialogue with cultural and educational contexts. I work – as part of a team – on the conception, visual identity, facilitation and development of these projects, in dialogue with educational, cultural and institutional contexts.
Discover our participatory art projects.
Workshops, courses and training programmes
Workshops and training sessions based on hands-on activities, the physical properties of paper and printed publications, embroidery and collaborative processes, tailored to different audiences and institutions.
Find out more about some of the workshops.
Self-published works
Visual and editorial explorations that span artist’s books, illustrated books and book-objects through experimental poetic processes.
Discover some of the self-published works.
Embroidery
Practices that explore embroidery on paper as a graphic and textile form, a sensitive form of experimentation and an extension of printed design.
Take a look at some of the embroidery projects.
