Tickets and official information
On November 17, the book “A décima Ilha em Santa Catarina - Permanências e Transformações,” by photographers Sandra Puente and Nilva Damian, will be released. About the book The title of this book stems from an idea that runs throughout the project. The Azores archipelago is made up of nine islands, but other territories shaped by Azorean colonization have come to be symbolically recognized as a “tenth island.” In this expression, Santa Catarina finds a poetic way to acknowledge the ties that crossed the Atlantic and found new forms of existence here.
It is in this territory between continuity and change that Sandra and Nilva build their visual narrative. Begun in 2020, the project takes a broad look at different aspects of the island’s culture and brings together, alongside the photographs, contributions from researchers, historians, and experts in Azorean culture. The written contributions expand on the perspective proposed by the authors and create a dialogue between image, history, and knowledge, making the book a poetic and historical-documentary record.
