Joana Azevedo

Joana Azevedo (b. 2001, Porto, Portugal) is a Portuguese-Brazilian artist living and working in London. Through intuitive and critical analysis of socio-cultural symbologies, Azevedo's practice investigates how bodies materially perform as sites where knowledge converges and proliferates. Working across sculpture, installation, writing and sound, she explores her own relationship to the self-consumption of femininity in relationship to representational capitalist structures. Manifesting her interest in the unveiling of power dissonances, she understands sound in her work as a mechanism of truth production and change, reflecting on its power over body, mind and matter.

Selected exhibitions include RIP x Goswell Road, Goswell Road, Paris, France (2025); South Open 3, OHSH Projects, London, UK (2025) and Underworlds, Seventeen Gallery, London, UK (2024). Azevedo holds a BA degree in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London and a Diploma in Creative Computing from Camberwell College of Arts.
