his intimate painting is part of the Cities of the Wind series, in which urban architecture is treated as a living, shifting body. Executed in Germany shortly before the transition to the Moóoca Houses phase, the work reflects a moment of quiet tension: façades bend, rooftops curl, and perspectives subtly resist stability.

Human presence is absent yet unmistakable. Illuminated windows and sparse interior details suggest lives temporarily withdrawn, as if the city were holding a collective breath. The controlled, fluid brushwork emphasizes structure without rigidity, allowing movement to persist within stillness.

Never before exhibited, Passado à Ferro stands as a reflective point within the series, addressing memory, construction, and the silent endurance of urban space shaped by time and absence.
