Sandra Pita Soares
Abstract and Figurative Painting
Sandra Pita Soares, a visual artist from Mozambique now based in Sesimbra, Portugal, creates a distinctive blend of visual expression influenced by the rich cultural heritage of Portugal, particularly inspired by Fernando Pessoa and Amália Rodrigues. In her art, Sandra delves into Pessoa’s poetic universe, drawing endless inspiration from his reflections on self and identity, evident in her enigmatic and multifigured paintings. Amália Rodrigues, the iconic “Queen of Fado,” also deeply influences Sandra’s work, inspiring emotional and melancholic pieces that reflect the essence of Portuguese fado. Sandra’s talent and dedication have
garnered national and international recognition, with her works displayed in prestigious galleries in Dubai, France, Cape Verde, Italy and Portugal.
