In between - a poetic tale written and illustrated in times of a pandemic - it is an authorial book that crosses visual and textual poetry. We will support the artistic creation of new authors in the Portuguese artistic panorama!

Not long ago, my attachment to poetry and illustration gorwn up not only due to a creative need, but also as an emergency to publish illustrated stories. And why not the poems too?

Thanks to a continuous exercise of introspection, the prevalence of a personal approach, not created, but spurred on during confinement; and to the incentives of those who have been following the evolution of my work, especially from colleagues and friends, the idea of disseminating and editing these poems has gained strength!

In between, it is a poetic text that is part of a larger self-publishing project. All support for this project will therefore serve to "buy time" for a new creation that will follow. This "fanzine" is a small poem that foresees the imprisonment in which we find ourselves in this unexpected trip. The fugacity of our lives, their insignificant scale within the natural cosmos, and the political thinking that still prevails tend to perpetuate a nefarious and abusive relationship between human beings and other living beings, the Planet and its ecosystems. It is a very small manifesto that jumps in defense of a future that must be lived now, where dreams and reality cohabit harmoniously, where reality can itself be a dream. Nature is us!

What each one reads in this book is up to each one to interpret. The drawings and texts are responsible for inhabiting the pages, accommodated between their expression and texture, the core that moves freely around the spine of the book, without spine, cooked by hand, open to what is to come, sketches to be completed.

Risography is an ecological printing technique that uses soy-based inks. There are twelve printed pages and dance in one and two colors in a delicate treatment with each pass through the machine.

On the one hand, I edited this book bearing part of the costs, and on the other, I had the institutional support of the Viana do Castelo City Council. What I intend above all else is for this work to use itself, to allow me to disseminate my work throughout the country, to help me continue this desire to be able to produce a next work!

In this crowdfunding campaign all the little "in´s" will be "many betweens" for me. - and for the Portuguese literary creation I hope :-)

I am confident that each of these books will be read with love and care by each one of you!

About the author

Hi! I'm Eva Evita to avoid confusion! :)

I am an architect as passionate about houses as I am about illustrated books. Until today, no illustrations or text have complained about my cozy compartments and tight feet!

Master's degree in Illustration and Animation at IPCA, Barcelos, in January of this year-no, I have been creating illustrations in the most diverse artistic areas. In addition to taking victorious cups home, full of joy, I teach and periodically hold illustration workshops with kids and adults. I was distinguished with some relevant prizes within the area, among which the Novos Talentos FNAC 2020 award, 1st International Porcelain Illustration Award Vista Alegre (2019), and the Young Illustrator Câmara de Amarante BIISA award (2017). There are at the moment going on some collective exhibitions taking place in Shanghai (China), Valencia (Spain) and Maia- UIVO (Portugal). With no fixed direction, I look through illustration to represent my imaginary world, based on personal observation of what surrounds me. Trying not only to fill my chest with short breath but the open eyes of all who listen to my poems !! I am an author together with illustrator Diogo Bessa of the Tusse Tusse Edições Ambulantes project, and I also carry out personal projects and many others for very demanding clients!

    Olá a todos!

    Espero que se encontrem com saúde!

    Tenho tudo prontinho para enviar já desde o final da campanha, contudo foi feita a encomenda de envelopes e caixas a uma empresa portuguesa que me ligou hoje informando que tinham a máquina de corte avariada e só retomam as encomendas de há 3 semanas hoje. Logo que receba a entrega procederei aos envios de todos em conjunto, contudo achei por bem informar-vos deste pequeno percalço que me é superior.
    Espero que compreendam e fico ansiosa para que recebam logo logo os vossos pedidos!
    Até breve a todos!
