Poster for the ART EXPO ALGARVE contemporary art fair at the Arena de Portimão, Portugal

ART EXPO ALGARVE in Portimão | Stand 78

This fair took place from Friday 22 to Sunday 24 September. You can find my other exhibitions on my exhibitions page.

I took part in ART EXPO ALGARVE, the largest contemporary art event in southern Portugal, at stand 78. The fair was founded in 2019 by a group of gallery owners and curators, to meet the growing need for a place to show art in the region.

Meeting the artists directly

Held at the Arena de Portimão, the fair brings together independent artists, galleries and artist collectives from all over the world. What I like about it is the direct contact: visitors meet the artists face to face, talk with them about their work, and can buy a piece directly, with no intermediary. Knowing the person behind a painting gives it even more meaning.

You'll find all kinds of styles there, from painting and sculpture to mixed media and digital art, whether you're a collector or simply curious.

At stand 78

On my stand, I showed my latest paintings, and it was a pleasure to talk with you about my creative process, my inspirations and the stories behind each canvas.
