I was born in Cianorte, PR, 1978. I have a degree in photography from the Panamericana School of Arts, in Visual Arts from the Tuiuti University of Paraná, a postgraduate degree in Positive Psychology, self-realization and well-being from PUCRS (2021), a Master's degree in Neurolinguistic Programming from SBPNL - Brazilian Society of Neurolinguistic Programming, Inner vision - body reading from IES - Eduardo Shinyashiki Institute, Therapeutic Photography from Robert Gordon University Aberdeen, UK., Systemic Family Constellator from the Koziner Institute, Coaching and Mentoring from FGV and in Psychogenealogy with Mônica Justino.
Memory, image and body have been constant themes in my production, using photography, video performance and installations as media in my work. In 2004, I was selected for the Itaú Cultural Mezzanine Photography Project and, in 2005, for the Erótica exhibition, at the Banco do Brasil Cultural Center, by curator Tadeu Chiarelli. I participated in several fairs at the Diana Lowenstein Fine Art Gallery, in Miami; Maco Art Fair, Chicago Contemporary & Classic Art Fair; Art Basel Miami; Arte Américas. I lived in Manaus, Amazonas for 3 years, where I worked with environmental and social photography, collaborating with foundations, NGOs, international agencies and magazines. I had clients such as National Traveler, Audubon Magazine, Veja, The Nature Conservancy, MUSA, Museu da Amazônia, SDS, Secretaria de Desenvolvimento Sustentável do Estado do Amazonas, Nestlé Brasil/Suíça. I was represented by the agency Select NY (2011 to 2015).
I live in São Bento do Sapucaí, SP, and am the creator of AFLORA Sustentabilidade Humana , facilitating groups using her CorpoMemória method and developing projects with NGOs, companies, public and private institutions in Brazil.
He has already facilitated more than 500 people with his method and developed work for NGOs such as Imagem Mágica, foundations such as Natura, GIZ Alemã, SYMRISE, Instituto Juruá Amazônia and public networks such as CRAS, CREAS, municipal school networks, etc.
My method
Photography is an expressive resource used in my therapeutic work to encourage the transformation of the being. Bringing to light a meaning, a self-realization through the expansion of deep consciousness integrating the various images we create of ourselves.
Using tools such as NLP (neurolinguistic programming), Systemic Family Constellation, Psychogenealogy and Positive Psychology techniques, this therapeutic process re-signifies, based on feelings, interpersonal relationships and self-observations, the vision we have of ourselves.
The universes of memories in family albums are looked at carefully, portraits of others and self-portraits invite us into each person's private world, bringing to light associations that awaken essential questions about our own existence.
