Sardine Contest 2025

School
An ode to those who dive together for a solitary purpose. Or rather, for a purpose that benefits others. I would say a school of altruistic fish that are born with a purpose imposed by others.

Aquatic Eclipse
In light of massive fishing, a shadow falls over the ocean’s fauna. Fish die in the nets. The seas die in the darkness.

Traffic Jam
Sardines do not require bottled water. Osmoregulation only requires salt balance. The plastic stays on the edge of the plate to prevent choking.

It didn’t see the light of day in the sardine competition, Lisboa Cultura | EGEAC but we still have an appetite for them.
