About

Artist, writer and performer Coco Candido (1992, London) creates from a place of redefining value. Who do we value? What do we value? Her performances and audiosets have been showcased at Horst arts & music festival, FOMU Antwerp, Recyclart and many others. Through her work, she makes invisible voices, stories and habits visible. This in order for it to be valued. Her work is autobiographical and explores what it’s like to be human, to feel, to move and be moved in return.

In 2025, she showcased her first solo-expo in Au Jus, contributing to Qommunity’s meeting at reading room. In 2026 she exhibited her work in Les Grand Carmes in Brussels. In her commissioned art works, she created words for various artists such as Vincen Beeckman (FOMU, 2023) She contributed to Micro Tattoos (Lannoo), a best-selling book in its genre. One of the films ‘Where Do I Belong’, she scripted, was selected for the Anima Syros International Animation Festival.

The body is always her starting point. Through dance, she is able to search for the words which lie in her body. Stories that are ready to be told. “I have always been a dreamer. And transforming my dreams into real creations is my favourite part of the human experience.”
