Letícia Costelha n.1996.
artist based in Porto, Portugal
Letícia’s artistic practice is interdisciplinary and process-based. Rooted in social exchange and collective processes, her work often unfolds through dialogue, participation, and shared experience. Coming from personal and familiar contexts, she moves toward collective dimensions, exploring the routines, connections, and intimacies that shape the territories and communities she encounters. She is currently responsible for the Public Program at Sismógrafo (Porto), where she develops public and educational initiatives, and is part of the cultural movement Serpentina, while maintaining ongoing collaborations on artistic education projects with cultural associations.
