My name is Maud Karlsson Lima de Faria. I am Swedish and I have worked mostly as a contemporary dancer in Sweden and in New York. Still working as a performer, I have also branched out and continuously develop other artistic expressions and today I am fortunate enough to be able to create exhibitions, performances, artistic concepts and events with a base in Sweden and Portugal.

 

I am the founder of the concept Her Story – The Collections which is part of HER STORY - a larger body of work addressing women’s stories with a multitude of artistic expressions. In so many ways, I want to stand with women and both be empowered by, as well as being able to empower, other women. We are all intertwined. We all share experiences being women and we can all make a positive impact, small or large. My ambition is to make a difference with my work and Her Story - The Collections is one of many ways.

 

My deepest intention with the collections I present is to address women’s situations worldwide as well as create a circular movement, therefore a percentage of each sold piece goes to empowering another woman through microloans.
