Nadine Ponce
Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, Nadine Ponce’s multidisciplinary practice draws from her formal background in Political Science, Philosophy, and Theatre. It incorporates elements of music, film, and memory to explore states of transition, emotion, and form. Her work is layered, concealing and revealing thoughts, reflecting on the shifting boundaries between the seen and the felt. The nature of the city she grew up in, Sao Paulo, plays a central role in elements that have influenced her work and her creative process. Its contradictions, density, and continuous transformation, deeply informs how she engages with space and narrative.
Her practice operates as a negotiation between improvisation and erasure, figuration and abstraction. Through layered, performative processes, tension between presence and absence is sustained.
