Fernanda Andrade

Born in Salvador, BA. Lives and works in Rio de Janeiro, RJ. Bachelor in Painting from the School of Fine Arts –  Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, her studies include courses in Visual Arts and Graphic Design at the Rietveld Academie and Koninkelijk Academie voor Beeldende Kunsten in the Netherlands, and at EAV Parque Lage in Rio de Janeiro. Her additional experience includes working with graphic design since 2008, leading workshops and assisting artists.

Actions such as appropriation, intervention and displacement are the starting point of her work, which focusses on the creation of subtle tensions between familiarity and estrangement, to provoke interruptions on domesticated perspectives of common and everyday situations.

Displacement (2013) was the title of her solo exhibition at Galeria Macunaíma at EBA / UFRJ. She also participated in several collective exhibitions, among which: DISSECADA, curated by Keyna Eleison at Gallery Marquês 456; Escrevo para me percorrer (2018), curated by André Vechi and Rafael Amorim at Centro Cultural da Justiça Federal; Pela Estrada e Fora (2017), curated by Ricardo Basbaum and Danillo Villa at  Gallery of the State University of Londrina; and After the Future (2016), curated by Daniela Labra at Parque Lage.
