Daniel Costa-Lourenço was born in Lisbon in 1976 and has a degree in Law. He published three books of poetry, As Vozes em ti in 2005, Furor das Noites Cheias in 2007 and Heróis (Chamamento)  in 2019.

Bruno Torrão was born in Lisbon in 1982 but has always lived in Alverca do Ribatejo. Reveals his poetic facet to 8 years. During his adolescence, some poems of his own were published in the school newspaper and so was born his poetic career. Is in the beginning of the new century that we notice a consolidation of his work with a greater diversity his own path, which converges the centralization of the body and the exacerbation of loss / longing / disgust. Participated in various groups of writers and poets such as Creative Writing, in poetry anthologies, and more currently in Spoken words, where he worked with Daniel Costa-Lourenço.

 

Marta Cruz was born in Lisbon in 1983 and graduated in Town Planning. Early began an artistic and experimental route in several areas. In 2011 founded the Atelier Portátil, a laboratory of urban experiences that challenges critical thinking. A space for ideas, thoughts and images that presents alternatives to creating new urban and social realities. The photography accompanies her dayly as a creative and emotional tool providing information about personal and intimate imaginary through projects such Eldorado13, Andhora and Lorikeet.
