Pedro Neves Marques & HAUT

Pedro Neves Marques (b. 1984, Lisbon, Portugal) is a visual artist, filmmaker and writer, whose work ranges from cinema, film and installation to short stories, poetry and theoretical writings. Influenced by anthropology and feminist and queer historians of science, their work highlights the clash between disputing images of nature, technology and gender, with science fiction and speculative writing being key to imagining other futures. They are the author of the anthology  The Forest and the School/ Where to Sit at the dinner table?  (2015), two short-story collections and a recent poetry book under their publisher pântano books. Recent exhibitions include Castello di Rivoli, Italy (2019); Gasworks, UK (2019); Pérez Art Museum of Miami, USA (2018-2019); and Toronto International Film Festival, Canada (2019).
