MARÉ DE AGOSTO

  • Photographer
    Mateus Morbeck, Brazil

August 2019. We were about to experience one of the biggest environmental crimes, in extension, in Brazil.
The small spots in Paraíba would soon turn into tons of crude oil spreading along the coast, mainly in the Northeast.
To date, no one responsible has been identified or even punished, it is not known how the oil arrived, the volume spilled or the actual extent of the damage caused.
In this book, I bring not only photographic records, but also several visual reflections on the tragedy and what I experienced during this period. Registration so you don't forget, show you to care.
