Hey, I’m Raphael! I’m from Brasil and I’m based in Lisbon. I just finished my Master’s degree in Art and Cultural Politics where I was studying about Art performance queer in Portugal. And beyond the academics I work on my own fashion brand, my big passion in this life. I’m happy to dress people and see them happier. In general I’m up to discuss about politics, gender and society questions, but we can also just drink wine talking shit and laughing about life (or everything together).

Here is my website for you to see a bit more:
