The contemporary experience of food is the new sacred.

In the past, church ceilings and baroque carvings were covered with gold from Brazil, now fish are treated as if they could understand the deepest part of human design, with the attention of a surgeon, of a trip to outer space.

In St. Anthony's sermon to the fish, António Vieira exhorted: "If you don't want to listen to men, listen to me, fish. Oh, the wonders of the Most High! Oh, the powers of the one who created the sea and the earth! The waves begin to boil, the fish begin to compete, the big ones, the biggest ones, the smallest ones, and all placed in their order with their heads above the water, Anthony preached and they listened."

Brass of various thicknesses in sheets and leaf rumpled by hand, composes tables, counter, lamps, door handles, faucet, sinks and lining in walls and ceilings (80x20cm diagonal overlapping metric).

Then here, perhaps, sitting on the last stool at the bar, Poseidon, the king of the seas, with his trident lying on the floor, wearing Agamemnon's mask from Mycenae and sulking like in Kafka's story, finds comfort in the refracted light of the waves passing over him and doesn't give up on his destiny as in the story.

The blue of the chairs, bench and bathroom is not ultramarine, nor Klein, much less that of the azulejo tiles that completed the gilded carving.

It is the blue of heaven's mouth.
