<br>---------------------<br><br><br>Manuela São Simao was born in São Paulo, Brazil, in 1980.<br>With the age of five she goes to Portugal where, in 2002, finishes the degree in Painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Porto University.<br>
She studied with an Erasmus scholarship at the National Academy of Art in Sofia, Bulgaria, where the confrontation with eastern territories with rather closed mentalities (pre - EU entrance) inspired her visual and conceptual work which continues approaching physical borders and its metaphorical relation with psychological boundaries.<br>
As a multidisciplinary artist, she is continually complementing her training and presenting projects in areas such as illustration, performance, intermedia, public art, sound art and curatorial work.<br>Since 2008 she has been developing intermedia projects with the collaboration of other visual artists, performers and musicians. These projects include: 'GIBBERISH' at Silence Festival in Lisbon (Goethe Institut); 'TRANSHUMANCE.PORTO' at Future Places Festival; 'MajHora FM' at Serralves em Festa (Porto); 'GIBBERISH.PORTO' at TRAMA Performing Arts Festival (FLUP), 'PECA (IN)CONCRETA' at Ciclo Vinte e Sete Sentidos (Culturgest, Lisbon).<br>
She is a member of the Association for Experimental Music - Granular and Radio Zero in Lisbon, since 2008. She recently lived in London where, among other things, was responsible for curating and organizing a series of sound installations with broadcasts on Resonance FM and Mobile Radio (Bienal de São Paulo radio).<br>
