Rita Nobre

About

My work emerges from the creation of narratives that seek to question the human being and his relationships with himself and with the other. Among many questions and answers, there is a constant duel between dream and reality; between the fragile and the robust, between what yields and what resists. I desire that the common daily objects for which I feel an intimate connection, communicate and dialogue with the objects that I am producing. I have been developing my work in sculpture, video, and drawing, resulting as installations.
