Artist Statement

I am a Brazilian-born multidisciplinary artist based in New York, working across ceramics, oil painting, and digital media. My practice explores identity, belonging, memory, and transformation through the lens of immigration and cultural displacement. Navigating life between cultures has shaped the way I understand home—not as a fixed place, but as something continuously formed, carried, lost, and reimagined.

Through symbolic forms such as animals and vessels, I investigate ideas of migration, adaptation, femininity, and resilience. Vessels appear throughout my work as metaphors for the body, memory, and containment—objects that hold both physical and emotional histories. Animals function as stand-ins for human experience, embodying instinct, vulnerability, and the shifting process of becoming.

Materiality plays a central role in my practice. I am drawn to clay for its ability to preserve touch, transformation, and imperfection, while painting allows me to explore narrative, atmosphere, and emotional memory. By moving between mediums, I create spaces where personal experience intersects with broader conversations around identity, displacement, and cultural hybridity.

My work invites viewers to reflect on what we carry with us, what we leave behind, and how identity is shaped through movement, memory, and change.
