EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant collection of paintings created by sailors from all corners of the globe. Located in the picturesque marina of Horta, a city nestled on the stunning island of Faial in the Azores archipelago, these artworks are a testament to the rich maritime history and cultural diversity found here. Each brushstroke tells a unique story, reflecting the experiences and artistic expressions of sailors who have traversed the vast Atlantic Ocean. From intricate seascapes to colorful portraits, this eclectic display captures both the beauty and challenges encountered during their voyages. The marina paintings stand as a symbol of unity among seafarers, transcending language barriers and connecting people through art. They serve as an open invitation for visitors to immerse themselves in this global community that converges upon Horta's shores. Surrounded by volcanic islands and bathed in Southern European charm, Horta is an idyllic travel destination for those seeking adventure or tranquility. The wall paintings add another layer of allure to this already enchanting place, offering glimpses into distant lands while celebrating local traditions. Photographed by Mauricio Abreu with his keen eye for detail and composition, this image transports viewers to Western Europe's Iberian Peninsula. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries - it can be found even on remote islands where sailors leave their mark before setting sail once again into uncharted waters.
