Metamorfoses

Metamorfoses is a platform for contact and presentation of projects and ideas that have already been realised or are currently in development.

Its name was chosen to reflect the belief that the entire creative process is an open and ever-evolving process, from the origin of ideas, through the influences and references that shape them, to their eventual realisation.

In a broader sense, life itself is seen as a process of metamorphosis, a continuum of transition and transformation; in this sense, this is also a life project, exploring the different facets and possibilities of Being — reflective, creative and transformative — expressed through the most varied paths, projects and their respective outcomes.

This website was launched ten years ago with the first product to be marketed — INFINITE FRAME — a modular system of frame components that allows wall panels to be constructed in infinite configurations. The product was patented and, through two crowdfunding campaigns, an attempt was made to raise the necessary funding for its production, without success; consequently, the project has remained on hold ever since.

Ten years on, and with circumstances now allowing it, the project Armário-bicho autorretrato — A construção de um Eu is now being launched — a work that is both artistic and functional, but essentially spiritual, made from wire, fibreglass, resin and light. Begun in 1995, interrupted for around twenty years and resumed in 2023, having been completed in 2026, it is an autobiographical work that represents a universe of questions related to the Existential Drama, Being and Life.

The work is being presented in an exhibition in Lisbon and If you wish to learn about the history of the work and its construction process, the book is available in print in PT or EN, or in PDF in PT, EN, FR or ES.
