Lucas Selezio de Souza

Lucas Selezio de Souza is a visual artist working across textile and installation. He holds a degree in Fine Arts from the Universitat Politècnica de València and has also pursued studies in Art History at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. His practice explores the notion of displacement to think about the historical boundaries built upon reality and what remains in the frictions between encountered territories. He is interested in the use of metalanguage and in reclaiming the narrative traditions of textiles, investigating their ties to systems of power and their potential to challenge dominant discourses surrounding globalized capitalism.
