Fatima Marques has been a visual artist for over 15 years. With academic and contemporary influences, the artist creates works that reflect the Universe of the Feminine in terms of beauty, feelings, dreams and daily life reflections / questions.
Having served as a senior marketing executive in some of the largest multinational consumer goods companies for over 30 years, she lived and felt the challenges of a corporate world up close (a very masculine world at the time, therefore rational) , logical and competitive) which consisted, in a way, of repressing feelings, emotions, dreams ... Thus, Fatima Marques discovered in painting, the ideal way to vent reflections, feelings and dreams. Besides, of course, being able to de-stress from day to day work, being able to connect with yourself and being with your mind in the present / now.
The union of these elements, generated the visual identity and the theme for which the artist is known today ... the "Art of the Feminine, of possible emotions and dreams".
