Inês Certo (she/her) is a portuguese artist and dentist based in Rotterdam.
After moving to the Netherlands, in 2019, she started to focus more on her artistic practice, mostly in photography, videography and performance art.
In 2023 the artist together with Sarah Blake, began a performance duo called Collective Disgust. From common to peculiar, the artists invite visitors to immerse in their deepest turn offs or dissociate into oblivion.
Certo’s interest in making art starts with the possibility of creating her own scenes, diving into discomfort and peculiarness.
