Maria Flores was born in Lisbon, Portugal 1979. As an artist, she combines different languages of plastic arts. Creating objects, costumes and staging imaginary scenes, result in pictures that eventually will be digitally edited. Now she includes paintings and drawings into her images.
Maria Flores; 'In my paintings I am able to express my feelings of sadness and the naive feeling of childhood as if in another universe. By contrast in the photos there is a more ironic and metaphoric background. Stories that are only possible in our imagination and that I am able bring them to live, this way I live through them by dressing up and being in their skin."
Came across Maria Flores' work sometime ago, she had a project gong on with José De Almeida, called 'Four Hands Photo'. But there is little left to be found on the internet about Four Hands Photo.
Some of the work returns, see here.
