Valongo, our hometown, is renowned for its bread and biscuits.
Oficina da Regueifa e do Biscoito de Valongo, a museum focused on these two cultural and gastronomical subjects, invited us to create a paper piece to be part of its booty.
They challenged us to recreate an old picture of three children, António Higino Carvalho, Ana Alexandrina Carvalho and José Marcelino Carvalho, who turned out to be essential to the development of the bakery industry in the region.
This is the appearance of the photo at the end of the process, after we have used it to trace the artwork onto the paper.
Single piece.
Hand-cut paper piece.
All components cut and assembled by hand.
