Francisca Maria Branco Venâncio, 1992, Portuense with Trás-os-Montes and Minho roots. Graduated in Jewellery at Soares dos Reis Artistic School, 2010, graduated in Ceramic and Glass Design, 2013, and Master in Product Design, 2017, at Escola Superior de Artes e Design das Caldas da Rainha. She works essentially around ceramics, being the link of her projects the exploration of the essence, both by form, matter and function. Recently, she began to use ethnographic collection as a methodological tool for the practice of design, where she inserts the role of food and memories in the construction of personal and social identity, issues that she addresses in her research “CLAY-A piece of time in feeding”.
