THE MUSEUM OF AVANT-GARDE AWARDS

Mendrisio, Switzerland

My work will be part of the contemporary collection of the Museum of Avant-Garde in Mendrisio, Switzerland as one of the finalists for this award.

But that doesn’t compare to the joy of having no one less than Graciela Iturbide selecting my works to be incorporated into this museum. Graciela Iturbide is someone that constantly inspires me and gave me one advice when I met her at a lecture 10 years ago: “Keep photographing. Don’t stop.”

The museum of avant garde is scheduled to open in 2025, and includes it is holdings works by over 250 avant-garde artists including photographers Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen, and Brazilian artists Tarsila do Amaral and Mario de Andrade.

Images from my series DEPRESSION. POSESSION. REPRESSION. that will be part of The Museum of Avant-garde can be viewed here.

FESTIVAL DE FOTOGRAFIA DE PARANACICABA 2023

São Paulo, Brasil.

Muito grata pela pré-seleção do meu trabalho RIO/MINE no Festival de Fotografia de Paranacicaba @ffparanapiacaba

Na minha série RIO/MINE represento a bacia hidrográfica do Rio Doce em Minas Gerais que foi cartografada, mesmo quando o conhecimento sobre a vastidão da nossa geografia e a riqueza do subsolo do Brasil ainda eram incipientes. Queriam esmeraldas, diamantes, ouro e finalmente minério. Eles nos delinearam para nos despir. 

Não há gentileza alguma neste desvelar. Para representar as tamanhas sequelas e o nível de morbilidade que o solo, o ar e a água agora carregam em consequência da atividade minerária, faço intervençoes em mapas hidrográficos do Brasil.

Exponho a terra despida de sua imensa riqueza, mas que apesar de suas profundas sequelas, ainda em seu cerne procura a cura em cada curva de seus rios, assim como eu procuro a cura em cada curva de minhas veias.

FESTIVAL INTERNACIONAL PARATY EM FOCO 2023

Meu trabalho A_CAMADO(A) é uma das séries pré-selecionadas no festival de fotografia mais antigo do Brasil - o Festival Internacional Paraty em Foco @pefparatyemfoco. Ele existe desde 2004 sem interrupção ocupando o centro histórico de Paraty, cidade eleita como Patrimônio Mundial da Unesco.

Obrigada a toda equipe @pefparatyemfoco

A_CAMADO(A) é um exercício imaginário explorando identidade e auto-definição: Se estivesse aos pés de sua cama, como me descreveria ao me apresentar pela primeira vez ao meu bisavô, que ficou cego no final de sua vida?
Neste trabalho exploro visualmente a ambivalência da minha identidade latina - uma mulher de cor em no contexto norte global, e uma mulher branca em meu próprio país de origem. Ao mesmo tempo representar como minha linhagem, como parte da elite branca privilegiada no Brasil, beneficiou-se de estruturas de desigualdade racial sistêmica em instituições, incluindo em serviços de saúde. Enquanto acamados, o cuidado, auxílio e amparo foram dados frequentemente a membros de minha família por mãos negras.

quarterly journal in Art Criticism

I am celebrating the inclusion of my work Conceptives on Contemporary Identities - issue #7 an independent quarterly Art magazine. Through short art reviews from scholars, art writers and art critics ContemporaryIdentities offers a space for experimental and progressive contemporary artists.

Efforts by Iranian artist Dr. Elham Shafaei and Italian artist, Sara Berti to establish multicultural dialogues through the creation of this publication have been recognized by the inclusion of ContemporaryIdentities into the Arts and Society Database - a collective of various institutions to promote Arts and the Humanities, including UNESCO-MOST. This database intends to map multidisciplinary cooperation utilizing arts as tools for critical thinking and social transformation.

Conceptives was a year long project of self-discovery and interactivity with my own feminine cycles. I will use the release of this publication to spread the concepts of this project once again with my audience.

”No words. Words form from thought.
Written words do not have the same meaning when spoken.

Words only describe.

There are no words in pain and sorrow. Words can give hope, comfort and joy.

And take it away.

I want to understand how to find words to accompany my feelings.

I find sanctuary in kindness.

Words will describe my remembrance.”

~ Chanika Svetvilas

If you would like to immerse yourself in this soundscape experience, here are the same guidelines we provided to the audience. Sound on. Preferably loud.

“Take a moment to listen and observe. Use this time to ground yourself in your body. When you feel ready, join the sound recording: you can chant, clap or move. There is no right or wrong way.”

See this exhibition from wherever you are.

Only available until April 2022

Film FESTIVALS

18º Festival de Audiovisual de Campina Grande.

Museo de Arte Popular da Paraiba, Campina Grande, Brasil.

This selection has enormous meaning for me. Paraíba is the place where the story of the film Matchbox took place in 1922, and without the Digital Archive of the Federal University of Paraíba its execution would not have been possible.

When creating projects deeply linked to a place, it is essential to know if there is a resonance with the land and people of the place from which an art project emerged. Presenting this film in any other city without a screening in Paraíba would have no meaning for me. Knowing that this film will be shown, interacted with and received in Paraíba is a confirmation that this story deserves to be told. Thank you very much to the entire curatorial committee.

The 18º Festival de Audiovisual de Campina Grande will take place between the 3rd and 17th of December, and will address the theme “Cinema in Super 8: Experimentations and Fruitions”.

Matchbox will be exhibited at the folkart museum Museo de Arte Popular da Paraíba, known as "Museu dos Três Pandeiros", the last building designed by architect Oscar Niemeyer based in the city of Campina Grande during this festival.

portugal indie film Festival 2023

best artist film award official selection

Nazare, Portugal

Matchbox has been selected to be part of Portugal Indie Film Festival and I am one of the films nominated in the Best Short Artist Film category. The award-winning films will be screened at the historic Nazaré cinema in Portugal in February 2024 Good luck to all the films participating.

This story has many layers, but the core of the short film MATCHBOX is this: as one of the finalists in a 1922 Era Magazine beauty contest, my maternal grandmother would be awarded with her photo printed on matchboxes. Engaged at 15 years, her future husband did not approve of such an award.

She closed the engagement on May 13 claiming her freedom and exclaimed: "On this day slavery was abolished" - referring to the naive historical perspective that the signing of a law on May 13, 1888 freed the enslaved populations in Brazil from systemic expectation and imposition of submission, inferiority and servitude.

Since 2019, LADIES DRAWING CLÜB sustains an independent community by representing and supporting emerging female artists from all over the world.

A lot has changed.

I encourage you to visit their Instagram account and see the story Ladies Drawing Club founder just shared, and spread their work, their artists and publications. Here is part of a message sent today. Read in full on their Instagram stories.

“All the people I know in Russia are people who have always voted against this government in the country, who fought for their constitution, who fought for their freedom. There are people who are against the war! We are all against this war! We are ashamed and hurt.

I love the world and every city on earth. I work with people from different parts of the world and I love it. It’s amazing to know how different we are and how similar we are. I am happy that during the existence of the club I was able to meet amazing curators and artists. We became close by doing the same thing. It’s amazing how many opportunities there are for people who love the world and strive for its development. And how precious It is that we can meet on our travels, move, exchange cultures.

I Believe this ends now!

Please

Love Ukraine

Love the world

Love people

I should note that our instagram account can be blocked by Russian government. Or the Instagram can be blocked for everyone in Russia. I will send emails soon and write updates on our web ladiesdrawingclub.com“

ANTHOTYPE PHOTOGRAPHY

João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brasil.

During this fall season I attended the workshop: “Plants feel: self-portraiture and Clorophyll Prints” on alternative methods of printing using plants as emulsions or support. These techniques were introduced to me by a Brazilian artist and professor Liz Vasc.

Being part of the lively conversations in Portuguese spiced with the delicious accent of Northeastern Brazil from participating students and my “Paraibana” instructor were as soothing as the process of interacting with the essence and beings of the plant kingdom.

I started 2022 with a group show at JKCGallery and I am closing this year with an interview by it’s director and RealPhotoShow podcast host and producer Michael Chovin-Dalton.

I am so honored to be one of the voices in photography welcomed to this podcast to exchange tales and perils of pursuing a life dedicated to this craft and share our latest works in photography.

When I first set foot at JKCGallery It was obvious Michael Chovin-Dalton had established a one of a kind space for photography in central New Jersey. In my 20 years living here, I had never encountered such a space before - I had found a home and my kin. Unfortunately JKCGallery just closed its doors, but the mark and the memory of it will be carried by many. Thank you Michael and curator Ryan Cassey for your dedication to this space.

But the show will go on. Here is the realphotoshow.

Please listen and share.

CURATION Project: “Capturing Feathers”

Princeton University Library, US

A new digital Princeton University Library (PUL) exhibition explores the bird imagery in the Library’s Digital Repository and highlights the importance of birds as an indicator species, serving as one of nature’s primordial messengers of climate change.

Titled “Capturing Feathers,” this exhibition is inspired by the work of Charles H. Rogers (Class of 1909), curator of Princeton University's ornithological collection from 1920-1977. The personal bird journals of Charles Rogers, which span a period of seventy years, are being digitized as part of an ongoing collaboration between the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) and the PULDigital Imaging Studio. 

Digital Imaging Technician and designer of the online exhibition Jennifer Cabral-Pierce curated the virtual display, which showcases PUL’s initial digitization efforts of source materials that will eventually generate invaluable data for climate change, conservation, and biodiversity studies.

- Read complete announcement on Princeton University Library’s website.

To fully experience the pages of each book I highly recommend a computer screen and not a device. And yes, you can even see the rich details of a Gutenberg Bible page by page.
