EXEA Museum Closes 2022 with "People of the Salt": António José Cravo Portrays Portuguese Salt Pan Workers

Friday, December 30, 2022

Closing out 2022, the EXEA Maritime Museum presented the exhibition "People of the Salt," the third contribution by photographer António José Cravo to our collection. This time, his lens turned to the salt pan workers of Figueira da Foz, Portugal, capturing the essence of an ancestral labor. The exhibition was enriched with an introduction by researcher Gilda Saraiva, contextualizing salt production in the region, and a poem by Cravo himself, which poetically dialogues with his black and white photographs. A tribute to the culture and work linked to salt.
