Charged Figures & Saturated Worlds by Catarina Mouta

Portuguese illustrator and motion designer Catarina Mouta crafts her images from bold shapes, saturated palettes and a sharp sense of symbolism. Her characters feel immediate and graphic, often framed in tight compositions that push hands, faces and objects into the foreground.

Across her work, bodies become canvases for colour and symbol. Catarina’s palettes shift from smouldering purples and reds to scorched yellows and earthy greens, each piece with its own distinct emotional tone.
