Biography
Since 2011, Tânia Dinis has developed a research and creation work about the intimacy, family archive, document, time-image-memory-dream correlation, and these specific works are inserted in the "Family Archive" series, which is in constant development and they crossed diverse perspectives and artistic expressions as the photography, performance art and cinematography. This research begins by the investigating and collecting images, personal or otherwise, as well as other devices: films, letters, slides, photographs, objects – and then they’ll be assembled in artistic experiments, reorganized, revisited and manipulated by the assembly, implementing collages and sound fragments, constructing small narratives in an exercise of confronting the image and sound, exploring the idea of image as an experience of the ephemerality of the time and memory, also using other registers of real image.
