O Jardim da Mouraria

“O jardim da Mouraria”-Inês d’Almeÿ

“O jardim da Mouraria” nasce da sensação da explosão calma das ervas daninhas que crescem, entre as pedras de calçada, alem de tudo. Vem das pessoas a viver entre janelas e ruas, esquinas e quartos. Vem da geografia de lugares escondidos, de rastos que ficaram, de plantas que me deram, de trocas de historias, de percursos entre as varandas e os sonhos acordados que criam”

” The  Mouraria Garden”- Inês d’Almeÿ

 ”The  Mouraria Garden” sprouted from the feeling of “calm explosion” of weeds growing between the stones paving the streets of the Mouraria area in Lisbon. It was inspired by people living between windows, sunbathed street corners, and dark rooms. It comes from the geography of hiding places, from plants that were given to me, from exchanged stories, and from “flanneries” between balconies and daydreams”
