Carlos Bunga

Carlos Bunga (Porto, 1976) studied at the School of Fine Arts and Design of Caldas das Rainha and currently lives in Barcelona. Bunga works at the intersection of areas such as painting, sculpture, photography, performance and video and often develops ephemeral site-specific projects, in which he uses poor materials, as cardboard and packaging adhesive tape. In contrast to the simplicity of the materials, his work is based on a consistent and sensitive poetic and conceptual approach to themes such as memory, the relationship with architecture, the fragility of urban life, demography, emigration and social issues.

Carlos Bunga has developed a significant national and international career, exhibiting in renowned institutions, both in Europe and in the United States, Canada and Latin America.
