Natasha Faria

Natasha Faria is a self-taught Brazilian artist based between Portugal and Brazil, specializing in papier-mâché as a contemporary sculptural medium. She employs slow, process-driven techniques of layering and accumulation, shaped by organic forms, subtle textures, and a balance between structure and softness. Her work explores memory, identity, and transformation, evoking both protection and vulnerability, and inviting viewers to experience a profound pause and intimate connection with the unseen aspects of life.

Since 1996, papier-mâché has been at the core of her research, approached not as a craft technique but as a conceptual and expressive medium. By transforming discarded matter, she constructs poetic structures where fragility and resilience coexist, affirming recycling as an act of continuity and reinvention.
The works invite contemplation and a suspension of time.
