The painting belongs to a series named "My Neighbor", started in 2024, where unique and different moments of the lives of the "neighbors" are represented from a voyeuristic perspective.
Through these scenes, I invite the viewer to occupy the role of a silent observer of others’ daily life — someone who witnesses fragments of intimacy, routine, or provocation, without ever being noticed.

Patrícia Trindade (1989) is a Portuguese artist with a degree in Plastic Arts and a Master of Painting, both from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Porto. Although she has devoted herself over the years to various painting series with different themes, the male figure has become the central element of her work. This has served as a springboard 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 the passivity of genders in iconographic representations.
