‘Meio’ is a Portuguese word that holds three different meanings: the area one belongs to, environment, and medium.

​

Living in urban areas can lead us to disregard the fact that cities are not autonomous entities. On the contrary, essentially, cities are built from and depend on natural resources.

​

Meio brings together household objects and  natural landscapes, in this particular case at the Serra do Gandarela  which has been threatened by a mining project. This work mediates this communion between nature and our everyday life, making them belong to each other again.
