MTB WORKS

Portuguese performer and choreographer based in Cacilhas/Almada, across the river from Lisbon. Intrigued and fascinated by the ‘spectacle’ of life, how people represent and present themselves in the social planes of existence, the tensions between ‘looking’ and ‘being’, glamour and it's destruction, the ridiculous that is contained in the processes of constructing and destroying our own image, things near a threshold. Embracing the matters of ‘play’, of playing, for real, because playing matters, keeps her moving, away from self-censorship and closer to a tuned curiosity.
