BOOKS & ZINES
The need to write comes, like all other forms of artistic expression, from a feeling or dissatisfaction with the world we live in. The Artist, multifaceted, expresses themselves not only through imagery but also through words. Here I try to compile and present a bit of these projects: an old comic book project, some fanzines developed at the University, a blog where I write a few things, and, I hope, in the future, some novels that I have been working on.
CRONICAS DE L'ARTISTE BLOG PUBLISHED ONLINE
The blog 'Cronicas de L'Artiste' (Artist's Chronicles) tries to compile some chronicles and opinions that I keep expressing on various topics. A bit outdated, I promise to pay more attention to keeping it up to date.

ZÉ PINTOR COMICS PUBLISHED ONLINE
A Comics project created in May 2014 and developed for one and an half year between London, Uk and Corsica Island.
Zé Pintor (Painter Joe, literally) is a fictional character, characterized by his existentialist ideas. In his head runs a lot of various theories and weird despairs that we'll get to know through short Comics.
During this time, eighteen comics were created, as well as some special pages and extra drawings.

MANIFESTO - A MORTE DO ARTISTA SOLD OUT
Manifesto - "A Morte do Artista" (The Artist's Dead) was a small handmade book that accompanied my solo exhibition "A morte do Artista" included in the T0 Project - Gueto in January 2007, Caldas da Rainha. One hundred copies of this A5 book of thirty pages with the manifesto and poems were printed, hardcover and glued by hand.

Facada Zine was a fanzine developed in Caldas da Rainha between 2005 and 2008. Co-edited with Tiago Baptista, we developed ten numbers of the Zine in this project.
