1997.    Mateus Carvalho Nunes

Curator, writer and postdoctoral researcher. Based in São Paulo, born and raised in Belém, in the Brazilian Amazon.

Working with cultural hybridisms of art, he focuses on the reverberations of the colonial period on contemporaneity. In the interchange between text and image, his practice is interested in non-hegemonic systems of organizing, perceiving and understanding time and history. He creates and develops projects intertwining art criticism, curatorship and research.
