About the artist

Nilda Neves Born 1961, Camanducaia, Minas Gerais, Brazil A multidisciplinary artist, Nilda Neves (1961) studied accountancy and was a math teacher, shopkeeper and hairdresser, among other professions, before dedicating herself to the visual arts and literature. Her work is closely linked to memory: each figure, animal or piece of landscape on her canvases corresponds to a "story" derived from her memories in the backlands. Now living in Camanducaia, in the Serra da Mantiqueira region and far from the reality of the backlands where she grew up, the Bahian sertão and its stories continue to be the focus of her intense production.
