Joana Viveiros (b. 1996 in Madeira, Portugal) is an interdisciplinary artist working between Madeira and Lisbon. Her project-based practice questions her own place in the world as an islander and as a woman. She graduated with a Master’s degree in Art and Science at Central Saint Martins in 2022 and has been working on projects that connect art and ecology, leading her to win the Maison/0 This Earth Award for her innovative sustainable practice (LVMH, 2022).
Through sculpture, video and analogue photography, Joana engages with the creative possibilities of everyday objects and materials. In recent years, she has researched the influence and symbolism of sea salt between broader historical and ecological contexts and the intimate scale of her human body.
Currently Viveiros is doing The Gramounce Food and Art Alternative M.A.
