Pedro Cabrita Reis

Pedro Cabrita Reis was born in 1956 in Lisbon, where he currently lives and works, having started the Painting course in 1973 at the School of Fine Arts in the same city. He had his first solo exhibition in 1981, and since then developed a complex work, characterized by the use of a variety of mediums, ranging from drawing and painting to sculpture and installation. Using simple and diverse materials, such as wood, glass, plaster, stone, plastic or metal, and sometimes domestic or everyday elements and objects, his works explore issues related to construction processes, architecture and memory, and are particularly sensitivity to the occupation of space, be it exhibition space or outdoor space (urban or landscape). He has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in important national and international museums and art centers.
