Manuel Mota (1970) is a Portuguese guitarist, known for the personal vocabulary he has been able to develop around his guitar. Brilliant improviser and scrupulous experimenter, his music is characterized by the absence of any boundaries between creation, composition and instrumental performance, drawing inspiration from a multitude of vaguely postmodern references, which give his poetics a curious timeless sense. Shy character, little known outside of a close search of enthusiasts, he has never done much to get out of a sort of semi-clandestinity, which in the end seems to be a characterizing element of his work.
