HALFSTUDIO created this large-scale temporary public art installation especially for Oriente Green Campus building complex by Norfin, curated and produced by Underdogs Gallery.

Located in Moscavide, the heart of eastern Lisbon, this artwork is made up of a series of sculptures taking the form of inspirational words. Chosen during a workshop involving community members from the Moscavide and Portela parish, and conducted by socio-cultural educator and artist Maze, these words reflect the values and desires of the local population for this area of the city.

The unveiling of the installation was accompanied by a performance with artistic direction by Festival Iminente, which included music and spoken word by Wako Kungo and Maze, along with contemporary circus by Daniel Seabra and Circo Caótico.
