Aveiro gives shape to Saudade

In Aveiro, last Saturday saw the participatory intervention "A Saudade that Ties", integrated into RIA 2026 – Streets of Artistic Intervention, held near the Mercado Manuel Firmino. Participants were invited to think of something or someone they felt Saudade for and to choose a ribbon – red for a Saudade that could still be "killed," white for one that was no longer possible – and place it on a metal structure designed as a map. The initiative came from Dalila, a designer and researcher native to Aveiro who grew up in Germany, and is the result of her project "Anatomy of Saudade," initially developed during her master's at the University of Aveiro. The goal was to invite the people of Aveiro to find a place for what they feel Saudade for, transforming a common gesture in the city – ribbons on bridges – into artistic material.
