Homegrown Silver

PRATA DA CASA is a collective creation project that aims to portray the people and the territory of a part of the city of Lisbon (Anjos-Arroios), based on the relationship of the resident artists with the surrounding social and cultural fabric.

Focused around the idea of community, it is a "photographic" reflection on the individual history of each person, in relation to the collective and community history of their neighborhood.

The final result was presented in an exhibition (in galleries and in shop windows, cafés, and other commercial spaces in the neighborhood) and now in a book, being the possible X-ray of a landscape in rapid transformation in recent years.
