Guilherme Vilhena Martins (Lisbon, 1996; lives in Berlin) is a writer and curator. He holds a degree in Philosophy from Lisbon Nova University and is currently finishing an MA in the same field at Freie Universität Berlin. His literary work consists of two books - 'Háptica' (douda correria, 2020), 'Voz/ Estudo de Som' (author's edition, 2022) - and texts, chronicles and reviews written for different magazines in Portuguese and English, among which Umbigo and Frieze. He has managed and edited 'Alcazar', an interdisciplinary literary project that brought together writers and visual artists around the idea of collective transdisciplinary writing. Besides, he has curated several exhibitions in Portugal and Germany and is one of the co-founders of EGEU, a project space established in 2019 in Lisbon. Vilhena Martins is interested in artistic practice as a critical tool and a form of discussion. His work revolves around the notions of waste, fulfilment and desire, as well as their different instantiations. Lately, he’s been focusing on the phenomenon of tourism.
