About Guilherme Limão

 
 
  • Biography
    Guilherme was born in 1993, and is currently living and working in Algarve, Portugal. His artistic research is based of exploring different approaches to manifest a deconstruction of identity and what is the meaning of boundaries that physical reality put on us. In his work there is an intimate fantasy of exploring a world where the lack of symbolic validation would rule the narrative, try to reach something more instinctive, animal, raw. One of the main goals of his practice is to establish a relation between the dilution of identity as a way to free our spiritual presence, by spiritual what is meant is to transcend the incorporated persona that is required for society but questionable as a human depth source. One of his main concerns is mental health and his obsession is how to illustrate a process of individual reality regeneration.
