Brazilian artist Renata Cruz was born in 1964 in Araçatuba, São Paulo, Brazil. In the 80s, she pursued a visual arts education, later completing it at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Autonomous University of Madrid, through courses in Art Education and participation in Printmaking Studios. This diverse learning, reflected in her work, also encompassed integrative art and painting. The artworks developed at CPS, featuring bird images that she presents as interactive projects with the audience they are intended for, are inspired by fragments of texts from the book "Leaves of Grass" by American poet Walt Whitman. The title "Área de Soltura" of these works refers to bird reserves in Brazil that preserve endangered species, a way of celebrating nature, just like Whitman's poetry, which according to the artist "reverences the existence of all beings." Since 2008, Renata Cruz has held numerous solo and group exhibitions in countries as diverse as Portugal, Brazil, Denmark, Spain, Japan, Uruguay, Peru, Sweden, Colombia, the United States, and Germany.
