Tristany Mundu

Tristany Mundu (b. 1995) is a Portuguese musician and producer of Angolan descent who explores invisibilised and sometimes romanticised realities. He grew up and lives near the Sintra rail corridor on the outskirts of Lisbon, a reality he represents through his own gaze and the gaze of the people around him. He is a founding member of the Unidigrazz collective, made up of young people who were born, raised and live in the parish of Algueirão-Mem Martins, one of the most populous in the country.

City around the City is a videoinstallation commissioned by CAM to Tristany Mundu. Through a triple projection and a set of textile pieces he calls ‘flags,’ the artist fuses the real with the surreal. In this videoinstallation, the artist explores distinct visualities marked by vibrant colours and deep symbolism, reflecting the cultural richness of the city in constant movement.

Wednesday to Monday, 10 am to 6 pm (Saturday, 10 am to 9 pm).

Free admission, subject to ticket collection on the same day.
