about me
I’m Patrícia Peres, a Portuguese visual artist.
Art has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My journey began with drawing, particularly realism and graphite portraiture, driven by my fascination with capturing the individuality, emotion, and presence of the people I portray. Over time, this passion naturally expanded into painting, where I work primarily with acrylic and oil.
My work moves between realism and more symbolic, intuitive forms of expression. I am interested in the emotional and spiritual dimensions of our human experience, the inner worlds, memories, dreams, and connections that shape who we are.
Through my art, I seek to create moments of reflection and connection, inviting the viewer to pause, feel, remember, and perhaps discover something within themselves.
artist statement
"I seek to create art that brings people together and reminds us of the importance of love, our inner worlds, and the connections we share.
We are much more than the physical world around us. Through my artistic expression, I want to create spaces for discovery, where people can explore their inner worlds, connect with their emotions, and see themselves reflected in my work.
I want my art to remind people that they are part of something greater and meaningful. Each piece is an invitation to pause, reflect, and connect with something within ourselves and with one another."
