"Um (Último) Abraço aos Imbondeiros do Sequele" - A (Last) Embrace to Baobabs of Sequele)

Last weekend (July 13) I invited my friends via Facebook to embrace baobabs, an invitation weird to many but others easily identified with the cause.

"Um (Último) Abraço aos Imbondeiros do Sequele" - A (Last) Embrace to Baobabs of Sequele) is a simple gesture in Photo-Performance against the genocide of Baobabs that are located along the access road to the Centrality of Sequele in Cacuaco (Luanda - Angola).

It is a shrine of Baobabs inside Luanda that should be protected but unfortunately they already have the sentence of death, even innocent and owners of those lands.

Man destroys fauna and flora every day and when Nature revolts, the consequences are devastating.

Development is important but it must be sustainable, not just thinking about us.
