Barra das Almas publicado no jornal online L’Oeil de la Photographie

Barras das Almas offers a glimpse of a small piece of countryside that can still be found today in Portugal. The region bears the parks of a past that persists in the present despite the erosion of time. After a career that lasted 30 years, a unique relationship formed between the Lisbon-born photographer and the countryside where he moved and which became his subject. This project is neither a flashback nor a work of nostalgia for the economic prehistory of a country. It is the anchor of a cultural reality that forms the shared imagination of this country which, like Proust’s madeleine, reminds us of the old but ever-present taste of a reality to which we became attached.
