Déjà vu, a reminder of the present appears as an adaptation of Manoel de Barros' poetry, showing the transition of time in bodies and places, in order to reveal in its visuality through layers of meanings. Under the design of elaborating a contemporary poetic archeology, the artistic project appropriates old postcards from the city of Porto to use them as a temporal-imagery layer, under the cartographic function that guides the encounter and confrontation of forgotten and transformed sites for the action of building and rebuilding the urban space.
