Júlia Martins Miranda
PAINTING, PHOTOGRAPHY, VIDEO & MUSIC
b. Brazil
Lives and works in Noto, Sicily
Júlia Martins Miranda is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is deeply rooted in themes of memory, cultural identity, and belonging. Through vibrant compositions inspired by Brazilian poetry, music, and storytelling, Miranda reflects on the warmth, color, and traditions of her homeland. Working across different mediums, she explores the intersection of personal and collective histories, creating paintings that serve as both homage and remembrance. Working from her studio in Sicily, Miranda reimagines Brazilian cultural traditions through the lens of distance, transforming her homeland into a site of longing, memory, and reinvention. In this space of removal, Brazil is not just recalled but reconstructed—its warmth, rhythms, and iconographies filtered through time and place, reconfigured into a visual language that exists between nostalgia and new mythmaking.
