Exhibition
The practice of Ângela Ferreira, a central figure in Portuguese contemporary art, spans installation, video, photography, and sculpture. Born in Maputo ( Mozambique) and trained in sculpture at the University of Cape Town during the apartheid era, her biography is deeply interwoven with the themes that traverse her work. Her exhibition at MAC/CCB follows a trajectory from her early pieces of the 1990s to her most recent creations, revealing her sustained research into the facts, infrastructures, figures, and architectures linked to colonialism. Ferreira’s projects both comment on and update the enduring effects of colonial history while foregrounding the modes of resistance that persist in response. She is recognised as one of the first artists in Portugal to openly confront and question the nation’s colonial past.
