Transição do silêncio
2016
Abrantes, Portugal
The word «Transiçao» (transition), written in the cloister of the former Convent of Sâo Domingos, now converted into a library, speaks about the passage of time: nothing is eternal and everything is transformed.
In a small street in the center of Abrantes, we find the word «Silencio» (silence), which brings us to the Portuguese calm portrayed by the poet Mário Rui Cordeiro in his poem «Paixao das viajes.»
