Susana Mendes Silva (Lisboa, 1972) is a visual artist and a performer. Her work incorporates elements of research and archival practice that leads to the creation of works whose historical and political references become visible as exhibitions, actions and performances that employ a wide variety of media. Her universe considers and reframes different social contexts without ever losing track of the individual's uniqueness. Her psychological intimacy and her voice are often the means for the diffusion and reception of poetic and political messages that call upon them. Susana studied at FBAUL (Lisbon, PT), at Goldsmiths College and in the College of the Arts of the University of Coimbra. Susana is also an Assistant Professor at the University of Évora in the Landscape Architecture MA.
