About Teresa Teixeira

Born in Lisbon, 1951, I had my life divided all the time between Lisbon and Porto, due to family and professional reasons. I attended a Professional Course of Photography in APAF - Associação Portuguesa de Arte Fotográfica, in Lisbon (2010-2011) and another of Contemporary Photography in the Atelier de Fotografia de Lisboa (2010-2011), among other short courses and workshops. I started photographing landscapes and I had my first exhibit, in Lisbon, in Instituto Camões (2011), under the name "Portugal em Objectiva". My work was published in Photoblogs and galleries like Getty and Arzilla online. I belonged to a photographic group, "Colectivo F4" and with this group participated in the first Iberian Documentary Photography - "Planalto Fotográfico", which took place in Mogadouro (Trás-os-Montes), with a first exhibition there and a second one in Porto. With this collective work a book was published. Later, a second book followed with work done by this group under the title "Trees"...
