Festas de Lisboa 2017
This series of illustrated sardines pays tribute to the joy, creativity, and community spirit of the popular festivities of Lisbon — especially the beloved Santo António celebrations. Each sardine tells a story, blending traditional symbols with playful imagination: Sardinha Party on Wheels With the varina, the musician, the marching dancers, and the scent of fresh manjerico in the air, we ride together on a joyful bike toward the heart of the Santo António festivities. A festive parade on wheels, full of rhythm, lights, and laughter. Sardinha Well Chilled In the heat of summer, nothing beats a cool, fresh sardine — like the perfect ice cream on a sunny day. This one is both refreshing and surreal, the cherry on top of a long afternoon. Sardinha All Hands On Deck Rehearsals echo in the distance, the city stirs with anticipation. The preparations for the big night begin — full of hustle, bustle, and teamwork. This sardine brings many hands together, each one adding a little something to the celebration. These sardines are more than just fish — they are characters, metaphors, and moments frozen in time. A celebration of Lisbon’s spirit, with humour, colour, and heart.
