Rafaela Salgueiro is a multidisciplinary visual artist, creative designer, and author of the project I Dress Bodies as if They Were Ideas. She works between the worlds of art and fashion and aims to unify these two creative powers. As a result of her research, the artist presents new linguistic possibilities that arise from the relationship of body and matter and addresses issues such as affection and sensitivity in an introduction to other material realities.
She has a degree in Fashion Design granted by Senac/São Paulo and a master's degree in fine arts from the Círculo de Bellas Artes de Madrid, based on her research into the unconscious, affection, and the potential transformation of materials.
