About me

Renata has developed an artistic practice spanning more than four decades, one in which materiality becomes a site of truth, tension, and transformation. Her work emerges from a multidisciplinary background that encompasses painting, jewelry design, three-dimensional modeling, and object-making, forming a visual language that moves fluidly between image, object, and space.
Her artistic journey has unfolded across diverse cultural landscapes—from Paris, where she received her early training at the Lycée Rodin, to Italy and the United States, where she further refined her practice through studies in oil painting at the Glassell School of Art in Houston and later in Art Sciences and Aesthetics at the University of Bologna. These experiences have contributed to a body of work distinguished by both technical rigor and conceptual depth. The artist’s geographical trajectory— Paris, Bologna, Chicago, São Paulo and ultimately Tenerife—Ready to move to my next sky and the land which I can call home.
