Brisa Noronha works with various media such as drawing, painting, photography, video, ceramics, and porcelain. Her research revolves around the active participation of materials throughout the creative process, focusing on the paths, limits, and instabilities defined by the interaction with each material. Her works are tied to the investigation of practice, resulting from experiments that bring together intentional action and the unexpected, order and spontaneity. “Sometimes I start with the material itself, sometimes I start with a subject or proposition to be developed, and the material asserts its importance in the process, or even becomes the subject,” she says.
She holds a Master’s degree in Visual Arts from the Universidade de São Paulo (2020–2023) and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Communication from the Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (2015), as well as in Visual Arts from Faculdade Santa Marcelina (2015).
In 2017, she received a grant from the Freedom to Create program of the Arteles artist residency in Finland. In 2015, she was awarded at the 22nd Praia Grande Plastic Arts Salon in São Paulo.
Among her solo exhibitions, highlights include Todos os corpos frágeis, Galeria Luisa Strina, São Paulo (2025); Os ossos do mundo, Sé, São Paulo (2021); MIA Anywhere, MIA Collection Virtual Museum (2020); As saboneteiras, Museu de Arte de Ribeirão Preto (2019); Guardar uma coisa, Galeria Murilo Castro, Belo Horizonte (2018); Gesto, Museu de Arte de Blumenau (2018); O Estado das formas, Projeto Mesmo Lugar – Qual Casa, São Paulo (2015).
