Joana Carro (Lisbon, 1988) develops her practice at the intersection of writing, cinema, visual arts, gastronomy, publishing, and graphic design. Her interdisciplinary work focuses on experimenting with media and their boundaries. She holds degrees in audiovisual communication and in literary theory and comparative literature (Complutense University, 2011, 2012), as well as a master’s in contemporary culture (Ortega y Gasset Foundation, 2013). She co-directs the publishing project Fulgencio Pimentel and was the curator of the Libros Mutantes Madrid Art Book Fair (La Casa Encendida, 2018–2020), among other cultural events.

She has translated more than thirty books and co-authored El libro del futuro (2018) with César Sánchez, a time capsule-like publication released in Spain, Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, France, Italy, and South Korea. Her work has been recognized with several awards, including the Gràffica Prize, three National Awards from the Spanish Ministry of Culture, and the Lázaro Galdiano Prize.

She has developed her artistic practice through residencies such as the Cité internationale des arts (Paris) and LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial (Gijón). She is currently developing her first feature film, My Name Is Erik Satie, Like Everyone Else, which was selected for the #LAB at the Novos Cinemas International Festival in Pontevedra, the Meditalents program in Marseille, and is produced by Esnatu Zinema.
