Amanda Gatti (Brazilian-Italian) is a transdisciplinary artist and researcher based between London and Madrid. She was born in Porto Alegre, southern Brazil. Working mainly with live performance, experimental film and installation on themes such as city, identity and displacement. Her works, through convergences between performance art and visual art, were presented in galleries/museums, non-conventional and public spaces in Brazil, Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom.

 

Currently undertaking a MA in Performing Arts and Visual Culture at Reina Sofía Museum, in Madrid/Spain. She has been developing the research 'Vestir La Ciudad' (Dressing the City), relating architecture, body and object. She's graduated in Audiovisual Production from PUCRS (Brazil) with an exchange (Santander Universities scholarship) in Art History from UJA (Spain).

 

Co-founder of the Território de Rupturas collective, currently based in the United Kingdom, Germany and Brazil, which investigates possibilities of remote creation based in the theory of 'Dérive' by Guy Debord and Georges Perec's concept of 'Infraordinary', which relates everyday life and art.

Amanda facilitated the workshop 'City, Dérive and Performance Art' in Portugal (2022) for the participants of the research 'Arqueologias Afetivas' and the virtual workshop 'Becoming Action - Body & Memory' (2021) for people from Latin America and Europe, still in the context of Covid-19.

She uses her multidisciplinary experiences to create and collaborate with several artists in site-specific performances, outdoor urban performances presented to large crowds and video arts/films. As a producer, she managed festivals and artistic projects in Brazil and in international co-productions.
