About this exposition

“Paredes-Meias” revisits the itinerary proposed by project “Peregrinações” produced and presented at the event “Manobras no Porto”, in 2012. Working form testimonies form participants, which are also residents of the parish of Vitória, a visual and sonic narrative was constructed, that proposes to discover fragments of the memories and daily lives of different generations of inhabitants. This short animated film intends to document experiences of this place, intersecting past and present in a common space, where collective and individual memories build the identity of the place. Because this identity is also made up of routines, gestures and paths repeated day after day by successive generations, this path is proposed as a cycle, with no beginning or end, in which the spectator can enter and exit at any given time. The photographs evoke the memory of these places, visible in buildings, streets, and walls marked by time, in which the traces of individual passages are inscribed. Small animated moments were drawn over them, sketched and simplified, volatile as memory. A sound recording of the itinerary was added to this visual component, complementing it with a layer from the present time. "Paredes-meias" was awarded with the Best Documentary Project prize, by Manobras no Porto 2012 Direction: Ana Miriam & David Doutel Photography: Ana Miriam Animationo: David Doutel & Vasco Sá Sounf design: Pedro Pestana
