The origin of life

Statement · by Marcela Neves · 2025

Portfólio, outubro de 2025

Through my work I speak of my roots, of stories I have lived and of the diverse cultures I experienced while travelling — a way of connecting with the past while exploring who I am in the present.

I speak about the origin of life, an act as complex as art, in which I try to capture the essence of the enigma of life's origin connected to the universe, the duality of being, the chaos that gives way to origin, creativity, the feminine, finitude — a journey between science, physics, spirituality and emotion in which each image speaks with the essence.

Nature, the senses, colours, sounds and forms are invisible bonds that unite us in a single universe. And so every being and every action reverberates, creating a constant dance between fragility and strength, chaos and order.
