In May 2020, I decided to photograph the Praceta I saw from my house window for a Workshop activity taught by Miguel Rodrigues. For a year I tried to capture as many variations as I could perceive on this landscape. The inspiration came after reading the comic book, "Park Bench" by Christopher Chabouté. As I looked at the square several times, I realized that there was a simple beauty there, and so when photographing everything that caught my attention, sometimes it was the shadows that formed on the ground, other times it was the incidence of light on the leaves, the change in coloration as the sun changed its position, or the appearance of flowers and fruits, etc. Although the scenery was the same, this did not mean that the landscape was static, because there were daily changes, however small. As Emanuele Coccia said in his book The Life of Plants - A Metaphysics of Mixture: "Plants, their history, their evolution, prove that living beings produce the environment in which they live, rather than simply being forced to adapt to it. They have forever modified the metaphysical structure of the world. They invite us to think of the physical world as the ensemble of all objects, the space that comprises the totality of all that was, is and will be: the definitive horizon that no longer tolerates any exteriority, the absolute continent. By making possible the world of which they are part and content, plants destroy the topological hierarchy that seems to reign over the cosmos. They demonstrate that life is a rupture of the asymmetry between continent and content."

The praceta is a harmonic landscape built by men who try to conserve it, but at the same time it shows a harmony that exists in nature in its cycles. Necessary Sunlight for photosynthesis, rain, roots, leaves, flowers and fruits to give colors and shapes to the landscape. In winter, for example, at the same time that we see a tree completely without leaves, just behind there is another tree full of fruit.
