Art enthusiasts from across Macao descended on the city’s Military Club between the end of September and 2 November to catch the fifth annual ‘Meeting Bridges’ exhibition in the club’s Comendador Ho Yin Gallery. In case you missed it, we’ve chosen our favourite paintings from the exhibition in this special edition of Zoom. The exhibition featured the works of artists from Macao and the eight Portuguese-speaking countries: Angola, Brazil, Cabo Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Portugal, São Tomé and Príncipe and Timor-Leste. A total of 27 contemporary pieces were on display, each using different techniques and expressions to represent the cultures, histories and lives of the Lusophone world.
