Lu Mourelle is a multifaceted artist whose role extends far beyond painting. She is also the founder and driving force behind the Lu Mourelle Art Gallery, located in the historic center of Cascais, Portugal. 

 

Since its opening in 2019, the gallery has evolved into a dynamic venue where Mourelle not only exhibits her own vibrant, expressive works — often inspired by feminine figures, emotional depth, and contemporary color palettes  — but also curates exhibitions featuring other national and international artists. 

​

In her role as curator, Lu Mourelle shapes the gallery’s identity: she brings together creators across different visual languages — from sculpture to digital art — and emphasizes inclusivity, experimentation, and bold artistic dialogue. 

 

​​Through this dual role as both artist and curator-gallery director, Lu Mourelle fosters a richly participative art environment — one that encourages conversation, discovery, and a constant exchange between her own creative journey and that of others.
