PRICE (b. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1986) showcases works in various settings, including museums, theatres, site-specific venues, and clubs. He lives and works mainly between Europe and Brazil. The medium of scent is playing an increasingly pivotal role in his artistic practice, sparking an exploration of the politics inherent in both social and private spaces. PRICE delves deep into the conflicting dynamics that exist within these socially normative categories, presenting trans-disciplinary concepts through time-based works, such as performances, sonic interventions, installations, and sculptures where scent acts like an extension of what is exhibited or performed.

PRICE has recently held exhibitions and live performances including at Kunsthaus Biel/Bienne (2024); MUDAM Luxembourg (2024), CC Strombeek Brussels B (2024), Spazio Murat Bari IT (2024); CAPC Bordeaux France (2023); MUDAM Luxembourg (2023); Trauma Bar Berlin, DE (2023); Casa do Povo, São Paulo, Brazil (2023); Basel Social Club, Basel, Switzerland (2023); Istituto Svizzero Roma / Milan / Palermo, Italy (2022); OCT0, Marseille, France (2022); Blue Velvet Projects, Zurich, Switzerland (2022); Joyfully Waiting x Cherish Geneva, Switzerland (2022); Systema Plus, Marseille, France (2022); Gessnerallee, Zurich, Switzerland (2022); Fondation Arsenic, Lausanne, Switzerland (2022); Echo Correspondence, Vienna, Austria (2022); Norbergfestival, Sweden (2022); KEM, Warsaw, Poland (2021); Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection, Paris, France (2021); Fonti Gallery, Napoli, Italy (2021); mumok and Burgtheater Kasino, Vienna, Austria (2021); My Wild Flag MDT, Stockholm, Sweden (2021); NAVEL, Los Angeles, United-States (2019); Galpao Bela Maré, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2019); Human Resources, Los Angeles, United-States (2018); Kunsthalle Basel, Basel, Switzerland (2018).DE

PRICE has launched several musical projects and released them through various music labels such as cazarnagora and Latency

He has taught workshops and given lectures at various institutions, including the Art Academy in Ghent (Belgium), KEM Space in Warsaw (Poland), Lateral Roma in Rome (Italy), Gerrit Rietveld Academy and Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam (the Netherlands), Institute Art Gender Nature in Basel and ZhdK Master Fine Arts in Zürich (Switzerland), Rupert’s Summer School in Vilnius (Lithuania)

In addition to his artistic practice, PRICE took on the role of guest curator for the performance program at the renowned festival Les Urbaines in Switzerland from 2017 to 2021. Beside that, he is one of the six curators of the art space Lateral Roma, which he co-founded with Geraldine Tedder in Rome in the year 2020. Recently, PRICE and his long-standing working partner Niklaus Mettler have co-founded AirSolutions, an agency specializing in the development of scent in space.
