The first comprehensive survey of fifteen years of work by Belgian-Brazilian artist Elen Braga.
Featuring essays by esteemed art critics and curators Raphael Fonseca, Laila Melchior, Paulo Miyada, Ilse Roosens, and Joanna Zielińska, as well as the artist's own writings, this monograph documents and critically contextualizes Braga's oeuvre, shedding light on recurring motifs, underlying themes, and the complex interplay between art and life.
Elen Braga (born 1984 in Maranhão, Brazil) is a multimedia artist based in Brussels, Belgium.
Renowned for her multidisciplinary approach spanning performance, textiles, installation, sculpture, video, and public art, Braga's practice draws on resilience, self-transcendence, religion, mythology, and identity. Her work often emerges from self-imposed, labor-intensive processes that are as physically challenging as they are conceptually rich, blending her Brazilian heritage with her life in Belgium.
