Ultramar

This project uses photography to document the presence of Africa in families that migrated to Portugal after the 25th of April 1974.

The creation of a photographic archive intends to record evidence of this presence in various dimensions of family life. The premise is that what people choose to keep, the objects they have around them, their personal collections, the decorative choices, the culinary options, are a door to their personal history. In this case, this is also collective history.

This project was shown at chumbo, between 31st of March and 12th of April 2022.
