Jonathas de Andrade

Born 1982 in Maceió, Brazil. Based in Recife, Brazil.
Encompassing photography, film, and installation, Jonathas de Andrade's multidisciplinary practice often centers on the social realities of Brazil's northeast. He interrogates its layered colonial history and persistent inequalities and forms of exclusion. Through sustained collaborations with various communities, de Andrade foregrounds lived experiences in his artwork, while critically examining dominant narratives and modes of representation.
