Sara Júdice de Menezes
As a visual artist, Sara Júdice de Menezes uses porcelain - as well as latex, hair, fabric... She explores our humanity, questioning its place and its future. Her Organes series is the result of molding animal entrails. Their immaculate whiteness evokes the sacred. The artist finds in them the vertiginous power of a form in the process of giving birth. The artist exalts the primal sexuality within us. She questions desire and impulse.
Born in 1979. Lives and works in Brussels. Grew up in the world of needlework and crochet, and studied ceramics, painting and sculpture at La Cambre (Brussels).
