Researcher

Bruno, a media artist and researcher, completed his bachelor's degree in Digital Arts and Multimedia (2020) at the College of Arts and Design in Matosinhos and his master's degree in Media Arts (2024) at the University of Minho. He is currently a PhD student in Fine Arts at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Porto (FBAUP) and a Research Fellow in the project Ecologies of Care: Multispecies Design and Circular Community Economies in Peri-Urban Settings, funded by Driving Urban Transitions (DUT). Previously, Bruno worked as a Research Fellow (MA) at CECS (Communication and Society Research Centre), funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), within the project MigraMediaActs (Migrations, media and activisms in Portuguese language: decolonising mediascapes and imagining alternative futures). His artistic and research practice navigates the intersections of media art and critical theory. Through installations, moving image, and participatory formats, he challenges dominant narratives and proposes situated and poetic forms of resistance in post-digital contexts.
