ABOUT
Asian-Brazilian, born in Curitiba (Paraná), has lived in São Paulo (SP) since 2017. She holds a degree in Visual Arts from the University of São Paulo (ECA – USP) and is currently pursuing a postgraduate degree in Museology, Culture, and Education at PUC-SP.
Her academic trajectory is marked by an interest in the intersection of memory, image, culture, and heritage. During her undergraduate studies, she dedicated herself to the exploration of historical photographic processes and laboratory work. In 2019, she began a Scientific Initiation Research project under the supervision of Prof. Dr. João Luís Musa, titled A fotografia como objeto (Photography as Object), which was nominated for the 29th International Symposium on Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity at USP. Seeking to deepen this investigation, in 2021 she initiated her thesis research on the digitization and conservation of analog and vernacular photographic materials, reflecting on the aging of supports and the memories inscribed in them. As a development of this work, she published the photobook Canção à poeira (Song to Dust), selected in different festivals and the subject of a critical essay published in Revista ZUM. She has also participated in initiatives dedicated to valuing oral history, such as the publication Acervo de múltiplas vozes: narrativas de experiências com Arte e Educação (vol. 2). (Collection of Multiple Voices: Narratives of Experiences with Art and Education [vol. 2] ).
Her education is complemented by extracurricular courses in the fields of image studies, archival science, heritage education, and museological processes, taken at institutions such as the Moreira Salles Institute, the National Archives, IBRAM (Brazilian Institute of Museums), and IPHAN (National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage).
She currently works in the management of cultural and historical archives, dedicated to the preservation of memories and narratives through the organization, conservation, and curation of artistic and mnemonic collections. Her work seeks to build bridges between past narratives and future perspectives, understanding memory as a tool that spans multiple temporalities.
