AT HOME IN THE WORLD: DAY EIGHT

18 AUGUST 2021 - DAY EIGHT

COMPORTA

For our final photo shoot we chose the Comporta area. Located between the ocean and the Sado river estuary, and less than an hour from Lisbon, it is a place with beautiful beaches, long stretches of dunes, parasol pine forests and large plains with rice fields. We thought this place would have great potential for creating a striking image of the Commune Coffee Table, and we took the opportunity to visit a friend to ask for tips on the best places to shoot. She directed us to a little trail outside the village where she took her daily morning walks. There we found a beautifully green expanse of rice fields with the dunes and parasol pine forests that border the ocean in the background. We chose to shoot from a low point of view to emphasise the sculptural qualities of the piece against the flatness of the landscape.
