Alice Yura: A Photographic Act

Alice Yura’s solo exhibition at the Pina Contemporânea building offers a thoughtful blend of photography, archive, and memory. You’ll encounter two visual essays that explore ancestry, immigration, and gender roles, using the artist’s own body as a bridge between different family histories. The work invites reflection on identity and personal history without feeling distant or overly academic. It’s a space where art and storytelling come together in a quiet, compelling way. Inside the exhibition, a photographic studio encourages you to step in front of the camera and create your own images, adding a participatory layer to the experience. During the first month, Alice leads free workshops, giving you a chance to engage more deeply with the themes and techniques on display. Whether you’re interested in photography or personal narratives, this show offers a unique way to connect with the artist’s perspective and your own.
