I am an artist and architect from Rio de Janeiro, based in Berlin. I work with digital collages, experimenting and combining images of watercolors and photographs from my digital palette, to create new spaces that trigger the viewers perception.
We live in an over-saturated digital world, where you have up to three seconds to capture the viewer´s interest before they click away. We are all submerged with a constant flow of images and information, as a consequence, I was hooked by the growing interest in piecing together different images to digitally reboot them and play with the notion of what is real and what is not.
SHORT BIO
Sonia grew up in Rio de Janeiro, studied Architecture at the local School of Architecture and Urbanism (Federal University of
Rio de Janeiro) and began her art studies at the Modern Art Museum of Rio de Janeiro. She attended art classes at the
School of Visual Arts of Parque Lage and at private art studios. Drawn to Berlin’s diversity to seek fresh projects and inspiration, Sonia explores AI as a creative partner—embracing collision, chance, and the unexpected in her evolving visual language and creative journey.
