Carlos Alexandre Rodrigues works essentially with diverse methodologies which act on different types of media, like painting, drawing, photography and tridimensional objects — converting them into themes and a varied disciplinary fields, such as geography, architecture, urbanism, archeology, anthropology or sociology, not with the intention to treat them as such, but to summon their subjects into his artistic practice.
He focuses on images and found objects, in an artistic appropriation process through inventory techniques and cataloging, in a simultaneous archival and aesthetic gesture. These images serve as a catalyst or a matrix for creating new images and objects. Master in Fine Arts, in ESAD.CR, Escola Superior de Arte e Design das Caldas da Rainha and graduated in Fine Arts in Universidade de Évora.
