queer science-fiction and 2D heterotopias
Caio is an artist and filmmaker based in Lisbon and Berlin.
In his work, queer speculative fiction speaks to social and existential questions and helps thinking alternatives to the world we live in.
Stemming from the need to imagine a place of fairness and solidarity, his work has been alternating between the analysis of self-organised collective modes of being together and the analysis of dealing with one’s own changing nature and existential fears, all along under the summer rain of gender joy.
He acknowledges the work of Jo Freeman, Ursula K. Le Guin and Samuel R. Delany as major influences on his understanding of life and its vast possibilities.
