O ponto de partida para a criação «é uma carta escrita por Jacinto Lucas Pires dirigida aos artistas em residência». Dela resultam «várias peças individuais e coletivas, nas áreas da ilustração, banda desenhada, cinema, música, fotografia, literatura e artes visuais», que «formam uma homenagem aos lugares inóspitos de fim de terra, guardiões da terra e do mar, da vida e trabalho das gentes do mar e dos faroleiros».
“Seascapes” is an initiative of Fungo Azul, with the support of the Municipality of Vila do Bispo, of the Regional Directorate of Culture of the Algarve and the Directorate of Lighthouses/National Maritime Authority.
