Sculptura Portuguesa – 6 -
I guess this will be the last in the “Sculptura” series… a final look at the weird and wonderful of Portuguese creativity….
One of the several beautiful miniature castles in the lake gardens at Sintra. They are in fact houses for the ducks, and I'm not kidding.
We came across this in the town square in Odimos. Is it a pig? Is it a camel? Or a new type of Heavy Metal guitar? We just don't know.
One of the most important historical figures in Lisbon. And a guy on a horse on a pedestal behind her.

About Café Crem
Café Crem was created by Miki and Kev Moore in 2007 with the intention of gathering like-minded artists, writers and musicians together around the coffee table to discuss and share thoughts, ideas, art, etc.
This initial desire has surpassed our wildest dreams with a myriad of collaborations taking place between the various members, creating pieces of work that simply would not exist without Café Crem.
Have a wander though in our different rooms:
“Cafe Literati”, the Literary Room
“Café L’Arte”, the Art Gallery
“Ca’ Puccini”, the Music Studio
and, last but not least,
“The MiniBar”, our creative space for our kids and teens!
You are all welcome.
Contact Miki at miki@goodaboom.com if you want to participate!

What great, whimsical works! I like the one in Odimas square – looks like they stole a bicycle seat from someone for the head. Overall, reminds me of that Kafka novel where the main character wakes up one morning as a large cockroach!
So if the ducks in Portugal get castles, where do the people live?
Hi Bob, yes – it’s very Kafka-esque, isn’t it? Regarding the ducks living quarters – it’s so palatial, I’m sure they’re faced with an enormous bill!
I wonder if the Portuguese revere them , as the Egyptians did their cats?
