DIOGO DA CRUZ A.K.A RODRIGO DE SOUSA
Diogo da Cruz received 's biography
Rodrigo de Sousa (b. 1992, Lisbon) is a conceptual artist based in Lisbon and Munich. He received a BA in
Sculpture from the FBAUL (2012) and a Diploma in Sculpture from the ADBK München (2016), where he
studied with Hermann Pitz, Ceal Floyer, Andrea Fraser, and Tyler Coburn. His practice relies on the use of
technologies to replicate or imitate, rearticulate and re-imagine unchallenged structures in Western society.
He works on long-term projects driven by partially fictive scenarios, often based on scientific findings and
referring to past, present, and future socio-political circumstances. With an interest in the level of
uncertainty that is involved in the construction of human knowledge, the projects interweave scientific
research, historical elements, memory, and fiction to reflect around ‘slowness’ as a form of resistance.
His work has been shown at numerous exhibitions in Europe, Russia, and Uruguay.
