Road Trip — Portugal

Shared Snack #2 (2003)

  • This photograph depicts a scene in Coimbra, Portugal. A woman is seated at a table, holding an apple. Beside her, a dog stands with its front paws resting on the arm of the chair, its head turned towards the apple, awaiting a reward. The two figures are in the foreground, framed closely, establishing a striking visual connection between the human and the animal. The background remains softly blurred, suggesting an indoor public space without defining specific details. Yellow metal furniture organizes the scene and introduces linear elements that direct the composition. The image captures a serene moment of closeness and shared space, seen directly and without staging, where everyday activities unfold naturally.
