Devir na Horta da Areia

This project brought together women with many different life experiences and living conditions with something in common, they live in the same city: Faro.

A group of Roma women living in a ghetto, a very degraded social housing area, in Faro and other women living in different parts of the city where brought together hoping to build fuller and more stimulating lives. Through artistic and creative experiences, the project aimed to encourage reflection on what divides and unites them, physically, culturally and socially in a personal and collective/community sphere.

Project supported under the 1st edition of the PARTIS & Art for Change initiative, promoted by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the ‘la Caixa’ Foundation.
