* 22.11.1980, Fortaleza, Brésil
Réside à: Berlin, Allemagne

Érica Zíngano was born in 1980 in Fortaleza, Brazil. She engages in humorous reflection on her own poetic work in the library, at home and on the street. She currently does this in Lisbon, where she is working on a doctoral thesis on Portuguese writer Maria Gabriela Llansol. In her own poems and video works, Érica Zíngano emphasises the everyday with a strong rhythm, using apparently banal imagery to reveal tensions within language, interrogating without any false modesty the literary tradition - Camões, Madame Bovary, and even The Guinness Book of Records and Google are used as sources for her ambiguous poems.

She received the 2009 ProAc Prize from the Secretaria de Cultura do Estado de São Paulo to enable her to complete her book project fio, fenda, falésia.
