Heloisa Hariadne is participating in the exhibition Ancestral: Afro-Américas at CCBB Rio de Janeiro. Curated by Ana Beatriz Almeida and Lauren Haynes, with artistic direction by Marcello Dantas, the show brings together more than 100 works exploring the African diaspora and its influence on the visual arts of both countries.

Ancestral creates a dialogue between Afro-Brazilian and African American artists in celebration of the bicentennial of diplomatic relations between Brazil and the United States. The exhibition addresses themes such as body, dream, and space, encouraging reflections on Afro-American identity and decolonial art. Heloisa Hariadne’s work joins a selection of artists who celebrate African roots and their relevance in shaping a new perspective on contemporary art.
