LAW stands for Lives and Works. Established in 2011, LAW is a bi-annual magazine that documents the beautiful undercurrent of Britain.

We provide a window into an often overlooked and rarely documented world, because we feel that it is vital to describe and record the time we live in, whilst always pushing things forward.

“For three years (2011-13), we have collected press clippings. The ‘Arab Spring’ at its peak; the arrival of the Troika (IMF, ECB, EU) in Greece, Portugal and Ireland; the earthquake and nuclear disaster in Japan; and a bit everywhere in Europe and the USA, citizen movements against austerity policies in favour of the bailout of the financial system. Far from these world events, yet affected by them, a family, ours, a photo album.
Gustavo is 5, 6, 7 years old. He learns to read and write. His friend Gaspar is 9, 10, 11. His body changes from child to small adult. The disease comes back, goes away and comes back anew, always in the summer, but surrounded by friends. ‘Banks are like cancer’ says a placard brandished during an “Occupy” protest movement in New York. A brutal metaphor spreading in someone’s body. We hesitate between staying in Portugal and trying our luck in France. As long as one of us still has a job, we stay.
This book is a facsimile of a photo album dedicated to our son and his friend, meant to be opened in 2030. It offers a journey across time, from an uncertain future to a past (our present) where our family pictures collide with those we get from newspapers. It’s a book to read, more than leaf through.” Patrícia Almeida and David-Alexandre Guéniot

She Comes in Colors: a visual diary of love in thoughts


In the summer of 2012 I met a girl. I took her picture.
We had a brief romance. She left home.
She Comes in Colors is a visual diary of love in thoughts.

The first edition of 50 copies of my book was self published in 2013, it was part of my graduation at the Royal Academy of Arts, The Hague, The Netherlands. The book has been nominated for the Unseen Dummy Award 2013 in Amsterdam and has been shown during the Photobook Show 2014 in Tokyo. The project has been exhibited in several
exhibitions across Europe.

The self published second edition of 500 copies has been a wonderful collaboration with Maciej Pestka from Magic Editions and Read That Image.
