GENTE DA MINHA TERRA (2015)

This photographic serie was accomplished in the village where I grew up.

It arises with my personal desire of showing that

even when in the midst of a fading out of these people's lives

there is still something that should be appreciated and praised: a beautiful innocence

blended with a great wisdom.

Those are the people who dearest to me;

Those are the people who always come into my mind when thinking about this place;

Those are the people who have seen me growing and, at the same time, I watched them getting old.

Some joyful and beautiful,

waggish and funny stories;

others not so much;

 

In the eyes of these people portraits

stories emerge like clear water.
