Hi, thanks for your visit!
I’m a Portuguese filmmaker, multidisciplinary artist, and researcher based in Faro — passionate about art, technology, psychology, and life!
Over the years, I’ve created works in filmmaking, analogue photography, audiovisual performance, and interactive art. I’ve participated in art projects, events, and workshops both in Portugal and abroad, and exhibited my work in festivals such as Som Riscado (Loulé) and Live Performance Meeting (Rome), as well as in independent events in collaboration with non-profit cultural associations like Trúgia (Beja), Rede Azul (Faro), and Museo Zero (Tavira).
I hold a PhD in Digital Media Art (since May 2025), jointly awarded by Universidade Aberta and Universidade do Algarve. My practice-based research focused on live cinema and its connection with lucid dreaming, exploring how interactive and immersive audiovisual narratives can evoke dreamlike states and altered perceptions of reality.
I am currently teaching in the Audiovisual and Multimedia undergraduate program at Instituto Politécnico de Beja, while continuing to develop new interactive narrative projects for performance and exhibition contexts.

Much love from Portugal!
