Sheila Ribeiro

Sheila Ribeiro (born March 25, 1973) is an artist considered to be post-convergent, working in an interdependent, multivectorial and extradisciplinary networked media ecosystem, expressed in an evaporated and remixed materiality. Involved with digital and body arts, as well as conceptual fashion, technology and communication and cultural studies. Currently lives between Salvador, Montreal and Rome. She was married to the anthropologist Massimo Canevacci.

Career Ribeiro is known for her fragmented, fantastical work, treating contemporary power dynamics, migration codes, digital cognition and pop fashion aesthetics, as well as for her multipurpose extra-disciplinary way of working through installations, performances, films, fashion shoots, dance pieces on stage, on camera, on the street.

She has been an artist since 1992 and has also been a consultant on transdisciplinarity, contemporary arts and cultures in the development of new epistemologies.
