Cãotry House (a.k.a. Uma casa no Cãopo)

Vila Nova de Foz Côa. 2010

Think we all have the common dream of a lonely house,

isolated at a top of a foreign mountain... 

ahhhh, with a never ending view, 

and a river... a golden river, 

swirling along the harsh track along the smaller hills!

You paint that dream with coloured pastels, 

even buy a entire new box on purpose...

With new colours. 

And you start painting, isolating yourself...

maybe looking for the perfect tones and shades!

But loneliness is only what you get.

And you realize that dreams are black and white,

when you dream the only colour you get is grey!

And there are no doors and windows

your only company are the wind,

the distance and silence...

You must understand

that even if you're sailing,

your dream will vanish

as soon as you reach it...

It's a dog life...
