Three Ways of Travelling

ROAD TRIP — Portugal

Garry Winogrand, for example, […] found that within the rectangle of this viewfinder, he could freeze vignettes of life as he saw it or, rather, as his camera saw it. It might sound like Cartier-Bresson, but in truth, his aims were very different: 
I photograph to find out what the world looks like in a photograph.”

(in) Gerry Badger. (1996). «The Genius of Photography» — On the road. London: BBC, p.140

⋯⋯⋯

There are still countless roads, places, and experiences waiting ahead.
Each episode becomes part of a journey shaped by landscapes, people, memory, and movement.
What stories and places will we encounter along the way?

Continuing from Coimbra towards Caminha, near the Spanish border, this second episode follows the Portuguese coast through places such as Mira, Porto, Matosinhos, Póvoa de Varzim, and Viana do Castelo.
Along the way, the changing landscapes, Atlantic coastline, urban centres, fishing towns, and everyday rhythms of these regions become part of the journey and its visual documentation.
Between coastal roads, harbours, and Atlantic shores, lighthouses emerge as one of the recurring elements of the journey, accompanying the route across different countries, landscapes, and geographies towards Northern Europe.
