The art of visual strategy.

Vanessa Santuccione is a visual artist specializing in collage, working in both analog and digital formats. Originally from Goiânia, Brazil, with Italian roots, she now lives in Portugal after living in Valencia, Spain, and Pescara, Italy. Her artistic journey began with acrylic painting in 2018, when she painted galaxies on canvases and clocks while still practicing law. After several career transitions, she decided to dedicate herself to art full-time. She explored watercolour, pyrography, poetry, and macramé. She learned to create digital collages first, then analog.

In Valencia, in 2024, she exhibited acrylic canvases in a solo show, as well as digital collages in a group exhibition. She received a poetry award in Spain. In Italy, in 2025, she created live collage at events for Max Mara's autumn collection activation across several cities. In 2026, she curated "Sapopemas," a collective multimedia exhibition at the Mercado Municipal de Oeiras, part of the Semana do Brasil, featuring seven artists from Portugal, Brazil, Italy, and France. That same year, she facilitated analog collage workshops in Lisbon and in Oeiras, where she lives.

She is the founder of Jardim de Criativas, an online community of women who want to transmute pain into light through art, specifically through collage. She believes art is a way of materializing what cannot be seen. Her work reflects her spirituality as well as the expansion of consciousness she experienced after moving through so many cultures.
