As a writer of a mixed background, I\u2019m invariably drawn to topics of radical cross-culturality, ecology and queer theory.<br><br>I see these topics as intrinsically intertwined with decolonial and anti-authoritarian struggles, believing we can radically change the way we impact this planet if we just take better care of each other across species. My writing therefore seeks to empower to fight against the system that is oppressing us for a way to live that is based on mutual care and autonomy. <br><br>Below you can find a selection of my writings from 2025\/2026 onwards. If you have any queries, requests or just want to bounce some thoughts, you're always welcome to get in touch.<br><br>with love,<br>m<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-068bbbf e-con e-atomic-element e-div-block-base e-068bbbf-ea8a226 \" data-id=\"068bbbf\" data-element_type=\"e-div-block\" data-e-type=\"e-div-block\" data-interaction-id=\"068bbbf\">\n    <div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e68ef3b e-con e-atomic-element e-div-block-base e-e68ef3b-ed16a24 \" data-id=\"e68ef3b\" data-element_type=\"e-div-block\" data-e-type=\"e-div-block\" data-interaction-id=\"e68ef3b\">\n    \t\t\t<h3 data-interaction-id=\"bc18aed\" class=\"e-bc18aed-b590670 e-heading-base\">selected writing<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"e-b2b0074-6b0468a e-paragraph-base\" data-interaction-id=\"b2b0074\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects.contemporanea.pt\/en\/projects\/jornal-da-critica\/essay\/rare-earths\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"e-paragraph-link-base\">\n\t\t[essay] <strong>17 Ubiquitous Elements of Domination: The Grip of Rare-Earth Extractivism on Lands, Lives, and Dreams<\/strong><br><em>Contempor\u00e2nea <\/em>\u2014 2026 \u2014 in portuguese &amp; english\n\t<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"e-d925049-83858bc e-paragraph-base\" data-interaction-id=\"d925049\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects.contemporanea.pt\/en\/projects\/on-hybridity-and-the-poetics-of-resistance\/performances-2026\/interview-with-ali-cherri\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"e-paragraph-link-base\">\n\t\t[interview] <strong id=\"e-mve90gyt-max4nx9\">Ali Cherri<\/strong><br><em id=\"e-mve90gyt-ojch3uv\">Contempor\u00e2nea: My Center Is Not in the Solar System <\/em>\u2014 2026 \u2014 in portuguese &amp; english\n\t<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"e-2a4d5e5-13f72f1 e-paragraph-base\" data-interaction-id=\"2a4d5e5\"><a href=\"https:\/\/observer.com\/2025\/11\/review-seventh-lisbon-architecture-triennale-how-heavy-is-a-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"e-paragraph-link-base\">\n\t\t[review] <strong>The Seventh Lisbon Architecture Triennale Calls for a Radical Rethinking of the Contemporary City <\/strong><br><em>The Observer <\/em>\u2014 20 November 2025\n\t<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"e-35904b8-c98033c e-paragraph-base\" data-interaction-id=\"35904b8\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects.contemporanea.pt\/en\/projects\/on-hybridity-and-the-poetics-of-resistance\/iv\/novos-imaginarios-para-a-cidade-contemporanea-agencia-humana-e-responsabilidade-no-antropoceno-uma-entrevista-com-territorial-agency\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"e-paragraph-link-base\">\n\t\t[interview] <strong>New Imaginaries for the Contemporary City: Human Agency and Responsibility in the Anthropocene.
