\Fernanda Galvão
Fernanda Galvão, *1994, São Paulo, Brazil
lives and works between São Paulo, Brazil and Paris, France
Fernanda Galvão’s artistic practice stems from her relationship with landscape, nature and science fiction references – both from literature and cinematography.
From her experience observing elements of nature, she thinks about the construction of fictitious landscapes and ecosystems. Regardless of the medium, she sets out by building particular atmospheres that propose a new universe with different rules, spatiality and temporal linearity. Galvão’s artistic focus is on painting, but she also works with films, installations and sculptures.
Fernanda Galvão has a bachelor degree in Visual Art from Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado, São Paulo, Brazil.
