The installation is situated at the MiratecArts Galeria Costa, within the idyllic landscape of the Vineyard of Pico Island, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The main focus of the intervention was the creation of a place of enjoyment for the vineyard with the Pico mountain in the background. The collective used concrete blocks and gabion structure with the island’s volcanic stone; the choice of yellow as the main color creates a vivid contrast over the dominant black of the landscape. “Tás co olho” is an Azorean expression used to ask where you are looking.
