Daniela Guerreiro
B. 1992

Daniela Guerreiro is a Portuguese artist, born in 1992 in Faro. Today she lives in Lisbon where she finds most of her inspiration. She studied Visual Arts at the Faculty of Algarve from 2013 to 2014, and then painting from 2014 to 2016, at the Belas Artes de Lisboa. Daniela is a figurative painter whose main intention of her work is to show reality, naked and raw, that is, her vision of the world. Painting allows you to capture individual and collective experiences in a more explicit concept. Each of them embodies the concept of social exclusion, shame, depression, insecurity, violence, etc., namely feelings that are little heard and talked about by society. While oil paintings individualize society, murals and street paintings aim to cover a broader, collective environment. The use of unconventional models allows you to convey a hidden beauty between each of them, where you look for a hidden and raw beauty of each character, working on color and the interaction between light and darkness. A personal and global journey in search of health and bodily connection is her main goal as a visual artist. “We need diversity in the examples around us. And we all need a healthier relationship with our bodies and with our image, to relate to the world.”

Created on August 2, 2025
89 Rue Ferdinand Buisson, 62200 Boulogne-sur-Mer, France
Created for the anniversary edition of Street Art Boulogne-sur-Mer 2025

In Boulogne-sur-Mer’s growing open-air museum, Venezuelan-born artist Daniela Guerreiro unveils a mural that stands as a quiet yet powerful invitation: to open our minds and step into the unknown. In contrast to Wedo’s nearby work on self-image and social media, her piece offers a more introspective scene, a young woman peering through the blinds of a dark apartment, illuminated only by a narrow beam of light.
Her mural evokes intimacy, vulnerability, and courage. “It’s about that private space within us,” she says, “and the strength it takes to look outside, to connect, to try something new.” For Daniela, the darkness symbolizes the comfort zone, while the sliver of light represents the moment of transition, the decision to move beyond fear.
