Coco Candido (1992, London)

‘My work is a collection of dreams. It goes beyond being a writer or artist; it’s about creating a space which challenges the status-quo. My work is autobiographical and explores what it’s like to be human, to feel, to move and be moved in return. I translate feelings through a range of different mediums.’

Coco Candido showcased her visual arts work at Au Jus Brussels (2025), Les Grand Carmes Brussels (2026) and R.A.R.O in Barcelona (2026). Her performances have been presented at Horst arts & music festival, FOMU Antwerp, Recyclart, Canapé and many others. Through her performances, she offers a political stand, making invisible voices visible.  At their core lies a slow choreography that highlights the importance of slowness in a fast-paced world. 

At the heart of everything Candido does, she aims to free herself from modern versions of slavery. Her work is based on her strong research background in sustainbility and environmental science (VUB, Antwerp Management School).  

Coco Candido works for a wide range of clients. Contributing to Micro Tattoos (Lannoo), a best-selling book in its genre. One of the films she scripted, ‘Where Do I Belong’, was selected for the Anima Syros International Animation Festival. In her commissioned art works, she creates words for various artists such as Vincen Beeckman (opening FOMU, 2023). For the internationally renowned artist Aaron Fowler, she helped develop the actualisation in 2023 for his exhibition at Anton Kern Gallery (New York, 2025). In her coaching, she uses dreams and visualizations. Capturing all the beauty and value that is surrounding the art.

‘The possibility of making the impossible possible is what drives me forward in life. I have always been a dreamer. And transforming dreams into reality is my favourite part of the human experience.’
