VÊS.TRÊS

VÊS.TRÊS is a collective project made up of emerging artists Ana Malta, Madalena Pequito and Maria de Brito Matias. Their collaboration began in 2018, after they finished their degrees in Painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon. The desire to continue working closely as colleagues led to the creation of joint works where pictorial harmony creates a game of seeing and recognising. The question that remains will always be: ‘Do you see three’? Three forms of expression, three styles, three colour palettes.

 

It emerged as a movement of mutual support, a dialogue of experiences and a space for sharing social issues as women artists. The collective aims to convey to the viewer the importance of bringing practices and minds together for the development of human life. We are social beings and by coming together we sharpen our senses - in this case 3 times more sensitive - creating this element - Vês.Três - which, as a singular artist, features three independent artists who want to leave their mark through a colourful language that is accessible to anyone. All three intervene equally and at the same time in all the works created.
