“A witty juxtaposition of religion and industry – what we used to worship, and what we worship now you could say if you were being sardonic – with the smoke stacks of the power plant mirroring the pillars and cross of the church.

My statement – “The west coast of Portugal is where you can travel to the westernmost point of the European continent. I wanted to express how today such a reputation does not mean much because no matter how far you decide to travel, the human presence will be more and more present. I decided to frame the scene by juxtaposing an old church literally built on the cliffs of the coast against a huge power plant and a parking lot for RVs and vacationers in the distance.”
