Catarina is an eclectic artist whose practice bridges the
realms of fantasy, myth, and mystery.
Her work is deeply rooted in an exploration of liminal
spaces, where imagination and reality intersect. Through different medium she creates
landscapes and visual narratives that serve as a response to the perceived
disenchantment of the modern world and reflect a nomadic understanding of
reality, capturing its fluid and ever-transforming nature.
Her multidisciplinary approach extends to drawing, painting,
installation, video, sound, and poetry, allowing her to delve into a wide array
of mediums to fully express her artistic vision.
This versatility reflects her ongoing exploration of
internal and external narratives, constantly manifesting and evolving as she
engages with the world around her.
We are honored to present her work in our Volume VIII.
