Saudade

At Galerie Insula

Quartier de l'Odéon, Paris

Focuses on colorful, once-affluent villas now empty
Echoes Fernando Pessoa's nostalgic Portuguese poetry
Staff are welcoming and knowledgeable about the works

Thomas Jorion's lens finds beauty in decay, capturing abandoned Portuguese palaces in baroque splendor. Each photograph freezes a moment of "saudade"—that untranslatable ache for a golden past that may never have existed.
