Aleta Valente is an brasilian artist, lives and works in Rio de Janeiro. From refined and banal photographic productions, improvised acts and installation situations that provide public participation, the artist work is activated by fissures between the field of art and technology and unfolds in unusual areas. In her works - low-res videos, memes, SEO, hypertexts and links - the artist operates different creative processes, countering the disproportion of the geographic plan of the city and aligning realities beyond real and virtual.

In 2022, she participated in the group exhibition “A Trama da Terra que Treme”, at A Gentil Carioca in São Paulo. In 2020, she participated of “Artifício – o podcast do PIPA”, fortnightly sound platform of the Prêmio Pipa (PIPA Award), curated by Luiz Camillo Osorio. In 2019, she held her first solo exhibition: “Superexposição”, at A Gentil Carioca gallery and won the ZUM Photography Grant at the Moreira Salles Institute (IMS-RJ), which resulted in her most recent solo exhibition, “Av. Brasil 24H”, in 2023. In addition to the nominations for the Pipa Prize in 2018 and 2017, she showed in exhibitions such as “História da Sexualidade” at MASP in 2018, “Latin Reconquista: La Colônia Contrataca”, at ABM Confecciones in Madrid in 2018, “Composições Políticas”, at Centro Municipal de Arte Hélio Oiticica, in 2016 and “Abre Alas” at A Gentil Carioca in 2015.
