Biography

Inês Raposo (b. 1995) lives and works in Lisbon.

Inês Raposo’s artistic practice is based on painting, although she occasionally exhibits drawings and works with installations. Her compositions deal with biographical themes, whether based on memories or photographs, as well as contemporary political, gender or social issues, which sometimes overlap with re-interpretations of certain themes from art history. These fantastic subversions with a sense of emancipation, empowerment, cynicism and fluid anachronism give her practice a diverse character, incorporating different technical styles. Raposo’s works bring together a personal and current vision, through a visual language very close to everyday life – often focusing on modes of depiction – portraits, landscapes and minute details of small objects.
