Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz are a duo of artists who have been collaborating since 2006. The hybrid nature of their research, combined with a desire for experimentation, led this duo to create several shows, soundtracks, videos, podcasts and installations, crossing different contexts and blurring boundaries between artistic areas. In 2023 and 2024, they are Resident Artists at the Champalimaud Foundation, where they develop interdisciplinary research processes, in synergy with researchers from the Champalimaud Center for the Unknown.
