Gabriela-José (b. 1990) is a Brazilian filmmaker who puts the lens of cinema on everything she experiences in her life.

Some of these stories, so urgent and passionate in her core,
are translated into films.

Surrealism is at the center of her study and research on cinema,
and her works propose a re-reading of life scenes from this perspective.

With her cinema background and working in the fashion industry,
she merges art and fashion in a very natural way with a strong artistic direction – mixing old and new technologies, from VHS to cell phone screenshots as well as numerical images.
The whole working as a pictorial support along with the soundtrack,
which translates the narrative into sound waves.

Gabriela-José is a transversal artist, who puts herself at the disposal of the work
as a whole – be it directing, writing, standing in front of or behind the camera, editing, composing the score.

She becomes the work, as the work becomes her.
