An imaginary visual journey on the life and time of Fernando Pessoa in Durban

Abstract

This project is a visual journey through the time of Fernando Pessoa in South Africa and aims at representing it in a visual way. This is not a visual topography of the houses he lived in or the schools he attended, although there are some images directly related to these details. It is the visual emotional journey of a young talented Portuguese boy in an African city rich in complexity, exotic moments, flavours and scenes.
