Patrícia Trindade (1989) is a Portuguese artist with a degree in Plastic Arts and a Master in Painting, both from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Porto. Although she has devoted, over the years, to several series of paintings with diverse themes, the male figure has become the central element of her work. This has served as a motif for various approaches and narratives — from the objectification of the body, to eroticism, to homosexuality and voyeurism — which question the usual representations of virility and passivity of sexual genders in iconographic representations.
