About the Artist
André Romão is a significant Portuguese artist whose diverse practice encompasses sculpture, drawing, and performance, often underpinned by rigorous conceptual frameworks. His work frequently delves into historical narratives, mythological structures, and the inherent power dynamics within language and representation. Romão creates evocative installations and objects that operate on multiple symbolic levels, often employing an economy of means to suggest complex ideas. His art invites viewers into a contemplative space where familiar forms are re-contextualized, prompting reflection on the construction of meaning, the fluidity of history, and the subtle ways in which power is manifested and contested in contemporary society.
