CONTACT ZONE (2024)
The "Contact Zone" Live Cinema project brings together the language of artists from the diaspora of countries that were colonized by Portugal and who now live in Lisbon. Our aim is to promote cultural and artistic encounters that reflect the diversity of the narrative of these communities through the collaboration of documentary film with live musical performance by these artists.
In collaboration with the Zelu collective, we highlight the importance of this space as an intersection point where different cultural heritages intertwine, creating new narratives and forms of expression for BIPOC (Black Indigenous and People of Color) artists in Lisbon. @colectivozelu

MINAS URBANAS (2020)
In constant waves of expansion and contraction, art drives significant social achievements and creates new human connections that transform collective history. In Fortaleza, a gathering of women opens doors for young artists to share their diverse experiences as women.
Their stories are part of everyday life in the city of Fortaleza. In the imagination of these artists, their art, like bricks, builds a world where so many wish to live.
