English Version | Dear frenemies

The topic is not at all pink, but it must be talked about, dissected, discussed, analyzed, debated – to sum up, put out right there in the open. We’re talking about a very subtle form of bullying, which is rarely seen as a trending topic but that, however, causes just as much collateral damage as any other type of psychological mistreating: bullying amongst women.

English Version | The life of those who matter

Princes and princesses, weddings and divorces, trips to paradise, dream existences, rumors, revelations, suitors, and traditions. This is the world of glossy magazines (pink magazines, in Portuguese). Pages and pages of a reality constructed around wishes and some magic, of stories so blown-up they become tales, that do not always have a happy ending.

English Version | The pink eulogy

Let us accept, once and for all, without shame, that we were born with it – and that even if we don’t realize it, we live and also die with it. No other color is up to as many interpretations or possibilities, because pink is the only color that accepts all others, the only one that doesn’t ask for anything in return, the only one that remains faithful to dreams, even those that seem impossible. Pink can be whatever any of us wants it to be but, above all, pink is, and always will be, the color of eternal return.

English version | A rose to the chest

In Portugal, one in every eight women has breast cancer. One in every eight women, in a normal day like any other, is confronted with that news that no one is ever expecting to hear. But it doesn’t have to be perceived as a death sentence. Confirming it we have specialist doctors, scientists, and the hopeful voice of women that went through that calvary and that today consider themselves better human beings, more appreciative. Above all, more grateful for being alive.

English Version | Parallel Universe

Mariel Clayton creates post-apocalyptic scenarios where the protagonist, eight times out of seven (pun intended) is a doll that we have become accustomed to idealizing as a helpless and girly damsel. Her photographs, small-large works of art full of details, are not for girls.

English version | It’s not pink, it’s nude

Marshmallows, sweet cotton candy, rhubarb, guava pulp, pink oyster mushrooms, it’s all very nice when you look at it from a photographic perspective rather than a taste one. Because gastronomic poetry comes from that peeking sausage in the middle of the cabbage that surrounds it, a type of comfort food that could only come to mind to a people as creative as we are.

English version | Pink dreams' car

It lent its name to films and records, inspired our imagination and contaminated popular culture with its curves, edges and, above all, its color - pink. Ladies and gentlemen, it’s the Cadillac.

English version | Shocking pink

It's not like shocking as a shock per se, but more of an epiphanic shock. These artists use predominantly pink Pantones to address current and controversial themes, or simply to convey messages that make us think, while at the same time excelling on the “cotton candy” aesthetic front.

English Version | The name of the Rose

Pink. The most ambitious color, whose name was not enough for a pigment alone, but that dared to encapsulate all the beauty, fragility, resilience and sensibility of nature. The color that conquered the queen amongst flowers. The color that gave its name to the rose.
