About
Hello! My name is Mariana Martins de Oliveira (b. 1995) and I’m a multidisciplinary artist and educator based in Porto, PT.
Through my work, I’ve been investigating about food, ancestry and participatory practices in order to question contemporary times and the individual's position in the creative, ecological and communitarian context.
By using food as a medium and conviviality as a tool, I aim to delve into the complexities of food cultures and its social practices.
