My name is Catarina. I like plants, but I do not know much about any of them. Currently working on a self initiated project to discover some more about those wonderful beings. I love vegetables and eggs are my favourite food of all the time. I always drink orange juice in the morning. Ice cream is amazing, and I ́ve recently discovered avocato. I ́m entering a whole new level on food experience. I made myself a club (“ColorClub”), and I ́m a dedicated member, almost as the peopleof Scientology. In other subjects, I love my work. I’m interested in graphic design, visual culture, education and values, as well as analog photography. My self-iniciated projects always appeal to some kind of social issue that bothers me. When I feel the need to share and complain about something, I usually do so by travelling to a new country, making a serie of photographs and then creating a whole project around it. Some examples of those are “There are people who have a group, and there are others who do not.” and “Complete Love”. I forgot to mention that I am completely crazy about traveling. Thank you for getting to know me a little.

Olga Noronha, a 21 years old, London based portuguese jewellery designer, has been relentlessly examining the relationship between bodies, attitudes and surroundings, both in the wearer’s and the audience’s points of view. Olga’s creations are never mere ornaments, but are art pieces that celebrate the marriage of sturdy mechanics and delicate anatomies. Constantly challenging and exploring the relationship of interactivity, Olga illustrates the connection between ‘to see’ and ‘to be seen’. Wishing people not to be apathetic towards her work, whatever the reaction – good or bad, Olga welcomes doubts for they may lead to surprise.
