Coexisting with nature<\/em><\/strong>, 2022<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The interaction between human beings and nature has been profoundly transformed throughout the last century, in part due to population concentration in urban areas. The lifestyle of the great metropolises has been altering a formerly umbilical connection, resonating often in stress and anxiety related disorders. With this project, it is intended to explore the contemporary connection between human beings and nature and suggest objects which result in experiences capable of strengthening it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All projects are transportable and possess a relationship with the tree. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This project is a set of tracing paper notebooks that aims to stimulate the free and infinite world of curiosity, creativity and imagination. The degrees of transparency of the leaves reinforce the feeling of depth, continuity and flow within a story that comes to life through each one’s imagination. The notebooks represent the passage of time and its transformation, there are no breaks or limits, all the pages depend on each other to tell the story, becoming one.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Based on skills in the field of sculpture and ceramics, a collection of ceramic pieces was developed for self-production using artisanal methods. The project explored and was influenced by the ancestral and fantastic imagery present in the craftsmanship of Barcelos potters, as is the case of Rosa Ramalho and the gargoyles or chimeras of the Middle Ages.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Este projeto procura compreender e potenciar interce\u00e7\u00f5es entre cer\u00e2mica e culin\u00e1ria. O trabalho desenvolvido foi constitu\u00eddo por dois momentos. No primeiro momento procura-se compreender a g\u00e9nese da liga\u00e7\u00e3o entre estes dois territ\u00f3rios, procurando fazer o mapeamento de t\u00e9cnicas e instrumentos partilhados por ambos. Num segundo momento foram desenvolvidos um conjunto de cinco fam\u00edlias de objetos onde foram usadas estrat\u00e9gias de constru\u00e7\u00e3o em que as mat\u00e9rias cer\u00e2micas e alimentares se confundem provocando situa\u00e7\u00f5es de intera\u00e7\u00e3o inesperadas. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Root<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong>, 2014 <\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The Root project seeks out what the author’s African roots are and how they can contribute to her work as a designer. In it, colors, textures, craft techniques, gestures, habits and everyday experiences are used as stimuli to create objects, which are nothing more than the fusion of the western context in which she was born and raised, with the African references (Angola and Cape Verde) that she got from a distance through her relatives. The project seeks to develop and design objects that reflect this cultural exchange and mix what is close with what is far away.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Mutant Molds: Serial Variation<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong>, 2013<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Through a series of different strategies, it was attempted to develop processes for the ceramic conformation of objects that allow variation in shape from the same mold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This shape variation was achieved through mutant molds where transformation is attained through assembly and stacking strategies, articulation and surface flexibility, elastic connections between mold parts and the use of new materials for mold production.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
