A course by Priscila Barbosa
For visual artist Pri Barbosa, the women around her and how they conquer space in society are the greatest inspirations. Transiting between painting, muralism, and illustration, the São Paulo-born artist creates portraits of female figures in moments of insurgency and rebellion. Her aim is to question the representation of the muse in Western art, as well as power dynamics.
With a degree in visual arts from Belas Artes and studies in gender and body at PUC-SP, Pri has collaborated with clients such as Asics, 3M, Fós Feminista, Huffpost, Cosmopolitan, and Marie Claire. She has also exhibited her work at festivals and both group and individual exhibitions.
