Cinthia Marcelle

Cinthia Marcelle (Belo Horizonte, Brazil, 1974) is a multimedia artist recognized for her work in photography, video, and installation. She studied at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, developing an artistic language marked by synthesis and precision. Inspired by everyday objects, places, and social interactions, Marcelle creates works that merge the ordinary with the poetic.

Her early collaborative project Capa Morada (2003) with Jean Meeran gained critical recognition, while her installation Education by Stone (MoMA, 2016) became a landmark piece. She was awarded the Future Generation Art Prize in 2010 at the PinchukArtCentre in Kyiv, Ukraine.
