"Poetic or Political?" curated by João Baeta

Running stitch


Cycle "Poetic or Political?", curatorship by João Baeta

[Free Entry]


To get to the puddle from the side of the house, whether we pass through the greenhouse or go around it from the outside, we always have to pass under the fig tree.

Although this tree is already twelve years old, its presence only has a place in my memories when I started to pick its figs three years ago.

Until that moment, I didn't like figs.

Today, whenever I visit her during the month of September, I climb to the roof of the shack - walls next to the puddle -, to be accompanied by all the ripe fruit within arm's reach. I go down, back to the house, eat and share - that's how I got the taste for them.

Since then, if I think of the puddle, I think of the fig tree, and if I think of the fig tree, I think of the hens that live in its shade. The hens are the most privileged: all the figs that fall and all the shells of those that pass through the human mouth, are theirs. It is for this reason that I believe their eggs are the best eggs in the world.

I speak to you of the real that so often borders on the absurd because it is exactly this place, so full of images, smells, touches, ways of doing and being, that is the first place of everything I produce.

Running stitch, running tales.

MUPI Gallery

MUPI Gallery is a dedicated image gallery that was inaugurated in May 2015 in the foyer of the performance hall at Maus Hábitos. Since then, it has been hosting a diverse program of individual exhibitions by local and international artists in different states of emergence.


The primary objectives of Mupi Gallery are to support the creation of new works and visual experiences while promoting the artistic journey of the invited artists. It challenges them to present a new solo artwork that takes advantage of the unique characteristics and prominent display format. Additionally, it aims to showcase the national contemporary art scene by introducing the solid work of local artists as well as emerging names in the visual arts.

As a gallery dedicated to individual exhibitions, Mupi Gallery complements the artistic programming of Saco Azul/Maus Hábitos. It provides a contrast to the exhibition hall's program, which focuses on artistic encounters and dialogue through collective and crossover exhibitions.


Saco Azul invites one artist per month to occupy the backlit triptych, promoting the creation of works that utilize images as a means of contemporary artistic expression. Through production grants, it affirms or questions the role of images in the present day. Comprising three urban advertising communication Mupis provided by JcDecaux to Maus Hábitos, this gallery is not only interesting for its physical characteristics but also for its cultural impact and inherent commercial connotation. The artist is challenged to react or interact with this structure, embracing all its capabilities and connotations.
