“Olhar” This original piece is presented today at the head office of Portuguese newspaper “Público”, conceived to mark its 25 years of activity (1990-2015). Constituted by 25 superimposed acrylic sheets that form a composition with an eye in its centre, the piece offers a reflection on reality and the most salient current events of the last 25 years based on a selection of clippings from 25 of the daily’s most significant front pages. This selection process, carried out together with Bárbara Reis, the newspaper’s editor-in-chief, aimed at highlighting “dates which, in some way, changed the world and others that revealed PÚBLICO’s more interventionist role in shaping the way people see the country.” //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Foi apresentada na sede do jornal @publico.pt esta peça original concebida para assinalar os seus 25 anos de actividade (1990-2015).

Above the baked array, the video advertises, at first glance, an enlarged reproduction of one of the cupcakes. Subsequently, the scenes expose several misfortunes that could happen in the life of these baked goods. The glitches of adversities expose hidden stories about the ingredients and materials internal to the cupcakes. The mere suggestion of the insertion of fruit stickers might create an uncomfortable moment for the person who is eating the sweet treat. The presence of the stickers implies an act of error, negligence or transgression in the act of cooking. Yet, fruit and vegetable stickers contain significant information about their process of production, exportation and importation, suggesting bitter or distressful information that we might be forgetting or obliterating from our daily consumptions.
