In 2024, O Espaço do Tempo continues to work actively with the local community of Montemor-o-Novo, this time in partnership with Monte Dentro, a local association in Montemor-o-Novo that promotes social integration, enhancing academic success, entrepreneurship, youth empowerment, and associativism. Starting on August 1st, Sara Fonseca da Graça will visit Monte Dentro's facilities to work actively with young people on the Unboxing project, a local engagement initiative that will culminate in a small presentation of the project on September 16th in a school context.
About Sara Fonseca da Graça | Petra.Preta

Through the fusion of artistic practices, she navigates liminal spaces between fiction and biography, seeking to map healing processes. Her body of work includes illustrations, paintings, and texts that become books, turn into installations, and transform into performances. This interdisciplinary crossover reflects the intersections that traverse her experience and serves as a vehicle to transform languages and create safe imaginaries. In addition to her artistic work, she is a co-creator of Histórias Invisíveis, an educational artistic project, and actively works in the field of art education, having collaborated with various schools, youth associations, and institutions such as Gulbenkian, Maat, Hangar.
