Inês Barros (1991, Braga) is a transdisciplinar researcher with a background in architecture, design, and art. Her works explore the topics of material independence, interspecies empathy, and social ecology. She collaborated with Office for Political Innovation, KWY studio, and Superflex, having the opportunity to work as a producer, architect, and artist with institutions such as V&A, Art Institute of Chicago, TBA21 and Art2030. Leaning on several media, Inês works mostly on space and materiality, developing installations in situ. Her recent works are essays on human and object-matter empathy: pieces of ecological critical thought that speculate on the bond between humans and nature.
Following an interdisciplinary principle, Inês often collaborates with authors from diverse backgrounds (performers, scientists, architects).
