Lives and works in Brasília

​

Júlia Mazzoni Sant'Anna is an artist and researcher based in Brasília, Brazil. She reflects on human existence through a dialogue between drawing and embroidery, exploring the line as the main conceptual and visual element. By intertwining thoughts on intimacy and materiality, the artist reflects on thresholds, between interior and exterior, private and public, ephemeral and continuous, absence and presence, based on images from everyday life, intimate narratives and memory.
