About me

I am an artist, curator, producer, and audiovisual creator. My practice focuses on the intersection of art, architecture, and the regeneration of spaces, exploring how abandoned environments and their memory influence daily life.

I have developed a variety of audiovisual projects, including the feature film Weekend (2009), Documentary Habitar Chile (2017), Portugal (2024) and Slovenia (2025), where I explored how architectural spaces shape the lives of their inhabitants. My photographic projects, such as Inhabiting the present (2023–2024) and Monoliths , capture unexpected moments in empty spaces, inviting viewers to imagine their past, present, and future.
As a curator and cultural manager, I founded Galería 9:16 in Porto, the city’s first moving digital art gallery, presenting over 20 artists in two years. I have organized artistic residencies in Portugal , Italy and Lithuania .Currently, I curate exhibitions at Galerija VVJ in Vilnius and serve as curator and artistic director of the experimental architecture festival Spaces in Motion.
