3 Fósforos e Vento é um trio díspar e confluente, que resulta de uma selecção de obras que recorrem a texto, pintura e desenho, reproduzidas no formato de mupi/backlit para o espaço do Maus Hábitos. Estas três presenças são um convite a mergulhar no tempo de cada obra, entre o visível e o que se adivinha: mel, ritmo, proximidade, sombra, luz, espera.
Da esquerda para a direita: “Flores, flores, abelhas” (80 × 125 cm, esmalte sobre tela); “Islas Resonantes. Uma Aberta no Horizonte (Dedicada a Catherine Ribeiro)” (76 × 115 cm, esmalte sobre platex); “1&1” (papel A4, sangue de dragoeiro). Obras realizadas na Ilha da Madeira em 2020, editadas e reproduzidas no formato mupi/backlit em 2025.
3 Matches and Wind is a mismatched yet convergent trio, that results of a selection of works with text, painting and drawing, reproduced for backlit display in the Maus Hábitos space. These three presences are an invitation to dive into the time of each work, between what is visible and what can only be guessed: honey, rhythm, closeness, shadow, light, waiting.
From left to right: “Flores, flores, abelhas” (80 × 125 cm, enamel on canvas); “Islas Resonantes. An Opening on the Horizon (Dedicated to Catherine Ribeiro)” (76 × 115 cm, enamel on hardboard); “1&1” (A4 paper, dragon’s blood). Works created on Madeira Island in 2020, edited and reproduced for backlit display in 2025.

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.
