Mónica de Miranda is a Portuguese artist of Angolan origin who lives and works between Lisbon and Luanda.

She works in an interdisciplinary way with drawing, installation, photography, lm, video and sound, in its expanded forms and in the boundaries between fiction and documentary. She is a co-founder of Hangar Gallery in Lisbon. Copies of Hangar’s newly-published book on contemporary Angolan art will be available
