ABOUT
|
Daniel Cabral is a Brazilian visual artist and video maker based in Brussels. His practice is centred around speech, body, context, identity and the public space. Not tied to a specific medium, he works with drawing, photography, video, collage, installations, interventions in the public space and lecture-performances. Operating between the corporate and the art world, these fields merge in projects that challenge notions of professionalism, authorship and entrepreneurship in art. Cabral earned a B.A. in International Relations in 2012, before making the transition to the Visual Arts. Since then, he studied Critical Theory at Chelsea College of Arts, London - UK (2015) and obtained a Master degree in Visual Arts in Sint-Lucas, Antwerp - Belgium (2020).
He participated in exhibitions such as OVERPRINT (Centre de la Gravure et de l’Image imprimée, La Louvière, 2018); Lebanese Biennale of Art (MACAM, Alita, 2017) and RISCO (MAMAM, Recife, 2014). In 2015, he was selected for the WARP Artist Village, promoted by the Bruges Triennial. In 2018, his publication "Tour Leopold II - A Guide to the Colonial Heritage of Europe" was nominated for the Prix Révélation Livre d'Artiste by the Multiple Art Days and ADAGP in Paris, France. Born in Recife, Brazil. Lives in Brussels, Belgium. |
