Sea
The sean runs in Portuguese veins since the beginning of time. It has inspired Portuguese poets and writers of all generations and triggered the Portuguese Discoveries. The sea is the leitmotif to read the Portuguese nostalgia and melancholic soul, as well as the word "saudade". Defining a collective past, but also signing the ways of the future.
