Workshop Etnographic Photography: Linen heritage and memories

30 Sep. 2017

Cabril, Montalegre


This kind of visual communication is a fundamental contribution to the historical record of communities and their cultures. In the lands of Barroso, Montalegre, more than a striking landscape, there is an ethnographic wealth of high value placed at risk by desertification. The involvement of the tourist in this ethnographic collection through photography is to go beyond the unconnected visit to the place — it is to provide a moment of discovery and connection with the heritage and cultural expression of the moment.
