This set of images is part of a project by the Parish Council of Portimão, authored and photographed by Patrícia Bauman, who uses photography to build a space of memory over a series of people who share the same geographical space in the daily exercise of their profession and that they are TEMPO's neighbors, workers from 11 traditional commercial establishments located in the vicinity of this cultural facility.
