PING! / Exodus, with Pablo Berástegui

Aiming to show the northern side of Bonfim, in Porto, to the pings!, the Exodus route showed a neighbourhood that has become a place of residence and work for a growing number of artists. This urban flow, which crosses streets such as Alegria, Anselmo de Braamcamp or Santos Pousada, is accompanied by the opening of new independent cultural projects and spaces, but not only. The visit revealed a group of creators and their projects, which materialise in different scales and structures, complementing and contributing to the neighbourhood.
