This mosaic pays tribute to the iconic image of the seagull, a constant presence in Portugal’s maritime landscapes. Between the blue of the sky and the deeper blue of the ocean, the bird spreads its wings in serene flight, capturing a moment where time feels suspended.

Each piece of glass and ceramic was placed by hand, creating a composition rich in texture and luminosity. The background in varying shades of blue, interwoven with traditional Portuguese tiles, connects the artwork to the nation’s cultural and aesthetic heritage. Golden details on the feathers and beak bring warmth and light, like the sun’s reflection on the water.

Protected by professional grouting and varnish, this work blends durability with delicacy, inviting the eye to follow the seagull’s flight beyond the visible shore.
