ANA BORGES DE CASTRO

PAINTING ON LINEN AND NATURAL FIBERS

CONTEXT

In the middle of a project, there's always that one detail…

that requires more time than you have

that needs more sensitivity than what's possible in that moment

that can't be solved with generic solutions

That's where potential is usually lost. I work with interior professionals, architects and developers who need someone who can think, refine and execute with precision.

METHOD

This is where I come in.

We define dimensions, colors and direction

I develop a mock-up

We adjust until it makes sense

We move forward with execution

Whether it's a panel, a painted curtain or a natural fiber piece, the result is always an interpretation of your intention.

THE DIFFERENCE

EACH PIECE IS MADE WITH TIME

Selected projects

Limited availability

Careful execution down to the detail

I don't seek the spotlight. Each project is treated with discretion and exclusivity.

The Real and the Poetic shaped me

I was born in 1967.

An Antique Dealer father and a Painter and Poet mother. Magnificent houses with magnificent pieces, full of positive emotions that favored gatherings between friends and family, always present.

I grew up in this melting pot of demanding yet extremely liberating aesthetics, where valuing difference and eccentricity was the norm.

The Real and the Poetic shaped me. Yesterday's art and today's have always coexisted in my aesthetic growth.

After 35 years of a career in interior architecture, I start again without fear, with my hands and feet firmly on the ground — and my ground is my sense of humor and the decision I made to choose what truly makes me thrive.

A former student of the École du Louvre, I now embrace a "slow living" mindset, embarking on a more solitary path. My linen painting tells the stories I imagine, while my client's eyes light up with what they share with me and the goals they hope to achieve through my Painting — that is the true challenge of a shared process.
