All the clocks at my grandparents’ house have stopped.
ÁGUA MÃE
Mértola, the Guadiana River, a place with old water mills where flour for bread was once ground. A place where birds live and people come to relax. Fishing boats pass by and fish leap. The tides rise and fall, and the atmosphere changes every day. The colour of the water and the landscape shifts throughout the year. At the same time, Manuela Barros Ferreira leaves us with the text Alma [soul]. Why do we contemplate the river?
Not to be missed!
