Smiling Girl

Margarida Paiva (1975, Portugal) is a visual artist living in Oslo working with film and photography. In 2007, Paiva completed her Master degree at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts, and has earlier studied at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Porto. Her films have been shown widely in exhibitions and international festivals. For many years her work related to stories of isolation, trauma, memory and displacement. These stories emerged in poetic narratives defined by an existential solitude.
