Description of the artwork
Cape Verde deserves its name. On the island of Santo Antão, colour is a place, a space, a landscape, a person, a memory and gives rhythm to the lives and stories of its inhabitants. Coriander perfumes the air and the dishes, vibrates intensely in my eyes with its green colour and in my mouth with its taste, confusing my senses and my ideas. I follow its colour and smell, like the stray dogs that accompany me and lead me from chance encounters to unusual places and scenes.
