Monica de Miranda, artist

The Art of Social Change

For our 29th episode we spoke to Angolan-Portuguese artist Mónica de Miranda in Lisbon. Monica’s research-led practice is grounded in the concepts of urban archeology and emotional geography. Her films, installations and photographs are inspired by her own personal story and anchored in postcolonial politics, emancipation and identity.
During our interview we discussed her recent film The Island, her installation Mirage and the series of photographs titled Shadows Fall Behind.
