Motta and Lima first met at the fine arts school of Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado (São Paulo) and started to develop and sign works of shared authorship. Interested in the experience of the beholder and having the daily life as the main theme, their works deal with the city and gallery spaces (including the limitations of museums), as well as the use of different technological resources. In 2010, they were awarded the CIFO award of the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation, in Miami. They have already participated in several collective exhibitions in Brazil and abroad, such as 1st Bienal del Fin del Mundo (Argentina, 2007) and the 10th Havana Biennial (Cuba, 2009).
