inês osório (Porto, 1984). Portuguese artist and designer, based in Porto.
Her practice explores the boundaries between sculpture, drawing and architecture...
Since 2021, has started a PhD research at FAUP at the Architectural Doctoral Program "Urban Forms & Dynamics", in which investigates the role of Art in the production of urban place - research that awarded an FCT Doctoral Research Grant, since 2022.
As a visual artist, she develops a body of work that reflects on the dynamics of contemporary society as an interdependent and changing whole. Her works materialize in a principle of repetition of gesture, which is revised as a constituent of his work methodology: logic constructions in which the cyclical process generates an accumulation of elements, resulting in the composition of parts as a whole.
The materials and techniques are developed seeking a search for the sculptural dimension of Drawing (as a constructive thought process), in an attempt to explore the three-dimensionality of supports and the potential connection between the two fields of expression - Sculpture and Drawing.
Since her training in Sculpture at the Fine Arts of Porto and Barcelona (2002-2007), she has addressed themes that express contemporary urban society, the interaction of the individual in a network, his identity formation VS social environment, psychosocial interference and other mass phenomena associated with our human evolution as a species.
During her Master's Degree in Sculpture (2007-2009), her practice developed around the "expanded field of sculpture" (Krauss, 1979), creating large-scale penetrable bodies: habitable sculptures, spatially constructed under an interdependent logic and systemic, works that are defined based on the architecture of each place.
In addition of co-founding ATELIER OCO in Porto, in recent years she has been working in parallel on functional projects, since her Postgraduate Degree Studies in Furniture Design, trying to rethink everyday life through the formal and functional exploration of objects and spaces.
Since then, she has been developing a critical and creative work in both areas of activity (Art & Design) on a freelance basis, occasionally collaborating with companies, design brands and institutions.

inês osório (Porto, 1984). Artista e designer portuguesa, sediada no Porto.
A sua prática explora as fronteiras entre a escultura, o desenho e a arquitetura.
Desde 2021 iniciou o Doutoramento em Arquitetura e Urbanismo na FAUP, no qual investiga o papel da Arte na produção do lugar urbano - investigação financiada com Bolsa FCT desde 2022.
Enquanto artista plástica, desenvolve um corpo de trabalho que reflete sobre as dinâmicas da sociedade contemporânea como um todo interdependente e mutável. As suas obras materializam-se num princípio de repetição do gesto, o qual se revê como constituinte da sua metodologia de trabalho: lógicas de construção em que o processo cíclico gera acumulação de elementos, resultando na composição de partes como um todo.
Os materiais e técnicas, são desenvolvidos procurando uma busca da dimensão escultórica do Desenho (enquanto processo de pensamento construtivo), na tentativa de explorar a tridimensionalidade de suportes e a potencial conexão entre os dois campos de expressão - Escultura e Desenho.
Desde a formação em Escultura nas Belas-Artes do Porto e Barcelona (2002-2007), aborda temáticas que expressam a sociedade urbana contemporânea, a interação do indivíduo em rede, sua formação de identidade VS ambiente social, interferências psicossociais e demais fenómenos de massa associados à nossa evolução humana como espécie.
Aquando do Mestrado em Escultura (2007-2009), a sua prática desenvolveu-se em torno do "campo expandido da escultura" (Krauss, 1979), criando corpos penetráveis de grande escala: esculturas habitáveis, espacialmente construídas sob uma lógica interdependente e sistémica, obras que se definem a partir da arquitetura de cada lugar.
Além de cofundadora do ATELIER OCO no Porto, nos últimos anos tem vindo a trabalhar paralelamente em projetos carácter funcional, desde a Pós-graduação em Design de Produto Mobiliário, repensando o quotidiano através da exploração formal e funcional de objetos e espaços. Desde então, desenvolve trabalho em ambas as áreas de ação (Arte & Design) em regime freelancer, colaborando pontualmente com empresas, marcas de design e instituições.
