Mázinha is a Lisbon-based and born artist and musician. Initially starting out in theatre, she later turned to painting and music as her primary modes of creative expression. A sense of exaggerated mood and vibrant playfulness are central to her paintings, and her bold use of colour blocking, geometric shapes, and urban and cultural depictions give her work a distinct pop-art-adjacent feel. Her paintings and live painting performances have gained her prominence on the Portuguese art scene.

Through live paintings and collaborative performances alongside musicians, she probes at the process and act of creative expression, raising money for significant causes in the process.

Her music career has spanned percussion, Brazilian music groups — including a project with composer Ivo Vargas — and hip-hop. She has participated in open mics and soirees, and in 2023, she collaborated with Beware Jack on the song “Cor Púrpura” and with Holly on the song “Vemo-nos em Agosto”.
