As an artist, curator, and interdisciplinary researcher, I seek to bridge cultures, identities, and temporalities by bringing forward the rich heritage and contemporary narratives of the communities I engage with. Rooted in my own trajectory, from Mozambique to Portugal, and informed by my work across drawing, installation, sound, performance, and curatorial practice, my focus is to propose experiences that celebrate diversity, question inherited structures, and foster deeper forms of understanding.

My practice explores memory, displacement, and the politics of representation, often grounded in research-based methodologies connected to museum collections, postcolonial histories, and lived experience. Through projects developed in collaboration with institutions in Portugal, Germany, South Africa, and Mozambique, I aim to reframe archival and colonial legacies while amplifying voices and stories that remain underrepresented.

I am a curator and artistic director of the project "Black Skin, White Masks: The Black Body in Presence" (EGEAC, Lisbon), and curator of the exhibition project "Difficult Memories and Decolonization in Portugal" (Plano Nacional das Artes, Lisbon), in collaboration with Paulo Freire Institute Berlin and Goethe Institute Lisbon. The project, taking place in 2024-25, deals with the work of memory through the Arts in Portugal. During my MA on African Verbal and Visual Arts at U.Bayreuth (UB, Germany), I became interested in developing innovative methods to rethink the museum space. At UB, I collaborate in several research projects, such as “Black Atlantic Revisited – African and South American UNESCO - World Heritage Sites and ‘Shadowed Spaces’ of Performative Memory” and “Multiple Artworks – Multiple Indian Ocean”.
