Galeria Zé dos Bois


A party that never ends nor begins. Half-empty balloons, sugar on the floor, a body laughing too loudly. Faithful Inertia is a space taken over—inflated, staged, collapsed—where the feminine repeats itself until it fails. A choreography of glitter, anger, confession, silence. Here, everything is too much and never enough. Between playing and performing, hiding and exposing, we inhabit this unstable territory: a place where the feminine is constructed, watched over, exaggerated—and yet still escapes. A place where one can rot slowly, without apologizing.

Carlota Bonito

Carlota Bonito (2001), who holds a bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts and Multimedia from the University of Évora and is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Multimedia Art—Intermedia and Transmedia—at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon, develops a transdisciplinary artistic practice that spans video, performance, and other media. Her work explores issues of heritage, legacy, memory, and identity, with a particular focus on the female experience and the social and cultural constructions of gender.

Inês Faráh Gomes

Inês Faráh Gomes (Caldas da Rainha, Portugal, 1999) is a transdisciplinary artist with a bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts from the University of Évora (2020) and a master’s degree in Design and Visual Culture from IADE European University (2022). Her practice operates at the intersection of image, object, and installation, exploring the construction of female intimacy, the politics of the gaze, and domestic spaces as performative and symbolic territories.

Melrose

Melrose (2001) is an artist from the island of São Miguel in the Azores. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Painting from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Lisbon. In her practice, she explores themes such as pop culture, religion, icons, issues of gender and identity, femininity, and the context of art itself, through mediums such as video, photography, performance, fashion, film, music, writing, and more.

Maria Moderno

Maria Moderno (Portimão, 2003) is a multidisciplinary artist currently living in Lisbon. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Sculpture from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Lisbon in 2024. Her work explores the traces of memory and mourning through acts of devotion, addressing the poetics of hope and love. Through the expanded field of sculpture, she works with elements linked to the everyday imagination, creating environments of intuitive plasticity.

Sara e Tralha

Sara e Tralha (1999), who holds a degree in multimedia and visual arts and is pursuing a master’s degree in anthropology, seeks to explore the more-than-human world through creative and magical gestures, guided by transfeminist, anarchist, and ecological perspectives. She is particularly interested in the formal and informal rituals of counter-visuality embedded in everyday human life.
