On 7 and 8 November 2026, FLASH ART brought together contemporary jeweller Amélia Marta, visual artist Maria Gonçalves and multidisciplinary artist Natália Laureano at Gallery 152, 8 Marvila, Lisbon, as part of Amazonas Events · Art Weekend Edition.

At the heart of the exhibition was a shared exploration of identity, the body and what it means to occupy space. Working through different media, the three artists approached the tension between what is held within and what becomes visible, between protecting ourselves and asserting our presence.

These questions connected the works, opening a reflection on how we reveal ourselves, relate to others and claim space in the world. Between restraint and expansion, delicacy and confrontation, each artistic practice offered a distinct perspective on presence and transformation.

Over two days, the gallery filled with visitors, conversations and shared discoveries. The opportunity to meet the artists and hear the stories behind their work made these exchanges an essential part of the exhibition.

To everyone who visited, shared their thoughts or took a piece of our art home: thank you. You filled the space and our hearts, making this weekend a memorable experience for all three of us.

FLASH ART also marked the beginning of a collective with more to share. We look forward to returning with new work, new encounters and further opportunities to bring our practices together.
