Biography

Teresa Murta (b. 1993, Portugal) lives and works in Berlin, Germany. Her work delves into the realms of the fantastic, the absurd and the poetic metamorphosis of the real. Intuitively, Murta weaves together elements from both the artificial and natural worlds, offering a gateway into alternate and uncanny realities that beckon to be explored.
